The colouring tutorial I mentioned is up, and under a seperate page called...Colouring Tutorial (surprise) ^^
So take a look, those of you who are going to be colouring =)
Welcome! This is the group blog for a team of students studying animation at UCA Farnham. The blog is for a group project where we are creating a 1 minute animation, and enables us to keep both ourselves and our tutors updated about the project.

Group meeting
Hi again!
Next group meeting will be this Thursday and will probably be our last group meeting together before the Easter holiday!
Since we have our digital skills deadline between 10:00 and 10:30 we will have our meeting at 11:00 in GO1.
It will probably be a short meeting but it's important to show up so we can go through one last time the stuff that needs doing in the Easter holiday.
See you all there (and good luck with digital skills!)!

Colouring!
Hi, here are just some suggestions for colouring....
Should we have the lines all black? Or slightly brown/grey, not completely black so they will blend better with the watercolour backgrounds since they are quite subtle...
Also, I know we are colouring them mainly flat with the paintbucket tool, but it would be great to layer some texture over the top, it's quite easy and makes a huge difference!
Example (untextured and black lines on the top, textured skin with slightly grey line art on the bottom...also not final colours, just something I picked to test out):
If we use textures, I have a few I've already saved from cropping out bits of the watercolour paper, which I can send to everyone doing colouring.
PS: I know my monitor is really dark so I have no idea what this looks like on anyone else's monitor... =/
Also, Lukas, I need the colour chart up NOW >_<
But I'm guessing something like this? (again, who knows, this might look terrible on another monitor...):

An Apology...
Hello Lord and Lady Creatures!
....I have an apology to make. I am afraid that, due to my own stupidity and fault, I did not have the frames I was supposed to bring in for the last few seconds of animation. I am so sorry for this - I did bring in the frames I did to fix the problems, but I didn't bring the others - I kinda forgot I had kept those to fix them. I am extremely sorry for this.
I also have to apologise to Oscar, because apparently the hands keep vanishing. Sorry for that.
If you wish me to do anything else for compensation for this, feel free - I did just kinda screw up the schedule.
However, on the subject of animation, I will be adding every piece of animation I have done for this project on my blog tomorrow. And another note on that - I did add the extra frames for the door, but it now looks worse. It'll be on my blog tomorrow, so go view it then (best go check in the afternoon).
Apologies again,
Andrew.

Next week
Hi everyone,
Next week we have class on Monday at 10:00 in B124.
Emelia, please bring all your papers =)
Oscar, remember to bring the stuff you've inked so we can finally get going on the colouring!
See you all there!
By the way, this is approximately how far we've got (Oscar has already inked some of this, and Andrew is basically done with his scenes, so we have come further than it looks, BUT there's still all the colouring to do! Hope the chart makes sense...):

Next meeting!
Hi all! Next group meeting will be THURSDAY at 11:00 in Go1.
Until then, please keep working on your line tests and bring all your finished paper on Thursday so Oscar can take it and ink it for next Monday.
It's only 1 1/2 more weeks until Easter so we have to work hard now to finish all line tests and inking before the holiday starts!
