Things we need to film

Here's the shots we need to film

Anthony- getting hit by horse, full body
Anthony - Stepping in real poop - Will lay down green poster board to put "poop" on.

Wagon Rider - (Shot from front and side) - Looking straight ahead holding ROPE. Looks to left, sees pretty girl. Hears gun shot, and reacts by cowering, then bailing to his left off of wagon.

Main Woman - hand re-dropping glass. Needs to stay in focus.

* Man outside on 2nd floor leans on railing. Rolls a cigarette. Puts in mouth, lights up, then walks off to his left (camera right) puffing.

*2 people sitting in stage coach talking. Lighting will be indirect. * Man driving stage coach. (should probably travel from camera left to right, so we can have them off camera quickly. But for variance, could have travel from right to left?)

* upper half of man walking from camera left to right smoking a pipe/cigar/cigarette. looking slightly down in front of him.

Rough Composite_3 & Shot extensions

Here's the latest animatic, and I've also listed which shots are too short and how much they need to be extended by. (I'll add these notes to the google doc). I rounded up the amount of time so we have extra footage rather than to the frame.

Shot 1: 9 seconds (onto the front)
Shot 2: 1 second (really 3-5 frames)
Shot 3: 1 second (5-10 frames)
Shot 6: 2 seconds
Shot 9: 2 seconds
Shot 16: 4 seconds
Shot 17: 3 seconds
Shot 20: 3 seconds
Shot 26: Made realtime, reduced to 5 seconds (to match nuit blanche)

Applied Dirt to Shots

VFS & VFX

If you're looking for inspiration and some healthy competition, type in "VFS" and "VFX" into youtube. The Vancouver Film School does it the right way. Check out the breakdown, and you'll see the level of plussing we need for cowboy.

Crow shoot

I will be filming the crow tomorrow (Mon 11/7) at 10am in SLC at Tracy Aviary, just in case anyone wanted to be involved.

UPDATE - So it turns out birds are afraid of green screens. So I had to move the screen way far back, and ditch my lights. I got some shots, but we had to go through 1 crow and 2 vultures before we got anything that looked remotely usable. So I might have a vulture shot we can use. I'll go through the footage and see if any of it is usable.

Barrel Splode

Felt the Barrel needed more lateral movement as it explodes. It's not as impressive vertically as the one I showed in class today but I think this might be better overall?

Rough Composite_2

Here's a side by side of what we have so far. Feel free to leave any notes in the comments. I'll move the nuit blanche vid to upper or lower left for the next rough composite.

Upload yer scenes and assets to the server!

Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Please upload your scenes and assets to the server. Your work is only valuable to the project if it's been uploaded and shared with the group. Even the best modeled poop in the world is worthless crap if it stays on yo' mamma's computer at home. Yes, I said "yo mamma." So please please PLEASE cover your assets and upload 'em!

Thank you.
