Progresses

Yesterday we thought in general who would take care of what. I, as a "photo wizard", made another forest scenery, from 7 photos this time. Now it's also a 20-second animation, where mist is slowly appearing.

Today I had problems with export of this animation..... Such a bad day to work! We were to go to CAVE to see my pictures on the big screen and to revisit. I couldn't have exported the animation at home, so I wanted to do it before we'd go to CAVE (after the lunch break).

At first I couldn't find the button, when I finally did the default settings resized it. I managed to learn how to change it and I wanted to save it to my memory card. This animation was done in Photoshop CS6, but perhaps file was too huge and no matter what I tried to do I couldn't play the video after export.

I decided to try Premiere Pro and it worked! More or less, though... I had about 13GB free but even if they were 7-8GB of weight, I couldn't no idea why.... These were 16- and 32-bit versions. I changed it for 8-bit one, then it weighted over 3GB and luckily I could put it on my memory card. I'd be sick otherwise ;D

After the lunch break our 15-minute meeting turned out to be almost an hour long! But we were talking about the plot in general throwing different ideas what we can do with the space around.

I thought in general about the timeline what could happen after what:
Screen - Scene
Metsä transition - dancers slowly moving like trees or still like stones
3D evironment (...some controller's action, following the voices?...) - voice, incantations
3D video including a hint for an ending - dancers "attack"
Transition to Metsä - dancers disappear
