Progress Week 3

I worked on animating the character and getting him to type on the keyboard. The shackles were also animated closing onto his wrists. Anthony created an improved boxing glove and made many other improvements throughout the scene. Next week, we hope to achieve getting the salesman in the scene and get further along in the animation of both characters.

day 6

Today I made the bed look more realistic. I also improved the boxing glove so that it can reach the characters head. We also looked up some rigs trying to find a salesman and we worked on animation a little bit.

Progress 3/18

Today I  animated the character and moved his fingers on the keyboard. Anthony finished up the objects and added lighting to the scene. We're ahead of the schedule so far.

day 5

Today I added the goon rig in. I also added some background objects such as walls and a bed and a bookshelf.

Daily Goal

Anthony and I are going to start animating the scene today. We will add in the surrounding walls once we're finished so it makes animating simple and easy.

day 4

Added a keyboard and shackles to hold your hands down. I also added lighting and floor boards.
