Small Progress

I've been making small progress on The Battle for Axis Mundi over the past few days. It's really only a couple seconds in the edited film. I only did one shot today.... but it did take 12 tries to get the timing right. And of course I had to make the animation and particle effects to film in the first place. I guess that one shot per day is starting to be a typical workday for this film.

Victory

Spectacular news! Today I found out that the last RCT3 Crash montage that I uploaded to YouTube has it's audio back! I feel hugely vindicated. When the audio was initially muted, YouTube was pushing it's ridiculous audio swap feature. I was appalled! Replace my video's music with something other than what I intended!? Absurd! I would never give in! And now.... MUAHAHAHA! THE AUDIO HAS RETURNED!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, the video will probably never regain the popularity it once had, and should still have now, were it not for the audio being ripped out. Check out the YouTube insight for it:

Yeah. It was pretty much dead in the water once the audio was taken away. Who knows if it will make a comeback? Nonetheless, I am very happy that anyone who cares can once more watch the montage in it's full, precisely timed glory.

Excited

Today I got to polish off those 200 frames of animation I was talking about, and I imported them into RCT3 and filmed them. And.... oh man this film is gonna be awesome. I can't help but be excited at this point in the production. I guess that it's normal to be excited when everything is starting to come together.

Animating

So I got to animate some today. Got about 200 frames done in the couple hours that I worked. The frames aren't 100% polished yet, however. But it's really fun. I love how whatever I make in Blender appears in RCT3 exactly as it looks! I'm still getting used to how cool it is. Thank you Jonwil and Belgabor!
