Week 7 Updates ~ Mini-Viva and Feedback about Current Progress from Lecturers.

So the progress for this week isn't as much since we were mainly working on the slides and I was reviewing the script stuff.



I did attempt to do a very simple logo for Imaginative Minds on Monday/Tuesday just in time for the Mini-Viva on Friday but they turn out to be... Eh.


That's why in the end, Donovan picked up the idea from there to have more of a curvy-cursive font because it's fun so we ended up with this as our current logo:





FRIDAY -

So anyways the Mini-Viva Presentation went alright, the main comments/feedback that we really needed to note were mainly:

1. Stretch Placeholder images if we have to use the placeholders (Will certainly help do that but with the new backgrounds, probably not as necessary?)
2. Define Artistic Style for characters (Kinda worried about this but not really my job though I would keep an eye out and lend a helping hand)
3. Better backgrounds with shading (Oof but that's definitely something I really need to work on. It's something on my mind for a while and I think I should buck up on my progress)
4. Get Story finalized - (this one should be easy, we do have our path just need the questions/notes)
5. Make sure project time scale is definitive. (Oof.)



Here's a brighter and colourful version of the classroom background. There were some comments from the lecturers about the backgrounds I have done so far. It looks much better and I should have used this version for the mini-Viva. Regrets. ;u;



But I think I will try experimenting with another method to do the backgrounds instead in week 8. Probably using the photos that I have to change it to a background would be a neater and easier process so I don't need to worry about things like perspective especially since the hallway alone took me 4-5 days to get the floor and wall partings right.

So for the next week would be used to rework the classroom scene with this new site tips I kinda seen:

That's it from me this week, cheers~
