Movie Textures in maya

For the static that's going to be played on the TV I would need to apply a movie file to the selected faces I needed so that it looks authentic enough therefore I used this tutorial for research and development of this as i had no idea how it was done. Here is the Link: How to apply movie textures in Maya

Camera movement 2

Here is the camera movement that follows exiting the 2d part of the film.

Camera Movement

Here is a play-blast of the first camera movement we are having to introduce the film. I will be posting up one more play-blast of camera movement for the next shot but i wont be able to add any more in until i have the animation complete, which should be by the end of this week, providing that Rebecca has managed to finish lighting the scene. 

practicing with the face

I was trying to give the impression of a drunks face, .

Playblast of animation testing

Playing with the rig and making the character give a hand shake.

Playblast of eye opening

I'm just practising with the rig and seeing how it works, so here is a play-blast of the first movement in the scene. 

Morpheus Rig

So unfortunately we have not been been able to use our own character and we are going to move ahead and use a Morpheus Rig, meaning that I can go ahead and start animating straight away and we can edit the Model afterwards so it looks more like our own character which i believe Rebecca wants to do. Rebecca is also going to be finishing off lighting the scene and then tomorrow, hopefully ill be able to start animating the scene.
