LA DOLCE VITA_Prologue

LA DOLCE VITA_UPDATE

Finally, I finished all the illustrations. Gladly, I was able to start animating, yuppie! So I am back on track and ready to just set up my scenes or episodes and animate the Ai files In Ae. :).

LA DOLCE VITA_UPDATE

Another late night...another day behind schedule. I will finish the illustrations tomorrow. Officially, I just need to draw Paola and the beach scene. On the other hand, I have messed around with AfterEffects and I didn't do too bad :). Wish me luck folks! I should be able to start animating this no later than this weekend.

*I do need to write a research paper for my art history class. Therefore, it may be essential to take 2 additional weeks for Dolce Vita. More time may be needed but that will be the new extended deadline for now. Thanks S for your support and I will deliver. I promise.

LA DOLCE VITA_UPDATE

Once again it is late or early in the morning. Unfortunately, I am getting behind schedule. I need to finish up the drawings no later than tomorrow Tuesday or else I will blow my deadline. On a positive note, I have completed a lot of work. I only need to draw Paola, a beach scene, Title scene (Giardini Pincio), Mob crowd, 2 small children, and the remainder of my sound effects.

LA DOLCE VITA_UPDATE

Right now is 2 AM in the morning...I am slightly behind schedule. I still have to draw about 7 items to finally move on and start animating the whole sequence.

LA DOLCE VITA_Project Timetable

There are 3 weeks for these project. I have split up this period into three stages. The first is pre-production which involves viewing and researching the movie. Second, production of the project which involves the directing and making of the project. The final and third step, involves post-production which will be creating the animation and final editing of the movie sequence. Schedule is as follows and may change due to the ambitious rendition of the italian classic.

1st Week (03/07) - Viewing, researching and analyzing the movie; direction and storyboarding.
2nd Week (03/14) - Illustrating and composing supporting details for the project.
3rd Week (03/21) - Directing and animating material; final edits and cuts.

*Projected to finish on the 25th of March.

LA DOLCE VITA_Prototype/Mock-up

Here is basically the style that I will be going for. This is Marcello, the protagonist, and every supporting character, set and prop will also be illustrated in the same manner.
