My Parents Blocking render

Ok so here is a blocking pass...at the shot after solving the perfomance.
Needs a little more work...think Ille tone down the head movement at "parents" just a bit...dont know maybe ille spline first and tone down there. I need to look at how it looks smoothed out.

I am happy with the simple background and the look the mr is giving it. Yay! Mental Ray!

My Parents

Hey guys back with another test! This one more for establishing workflow and subtle acting.

Hey Guys here is the finalized last breath and another test I call cheeze wiz....really learned alot on this one....Lighting...getting rid of the those ridiculous black squares when rendering in mental ray, and using 2 Boris' in the same shot....i didnt use that here obviously but i did a test with this boris and another in the bg....also finally got to alter Boris into something else....as far as looks....I like the design i was able to come up with for the first time...although i did some experimenting with Commando this was one where i got to alter the body and color to make boris look like he is wearing clothes....cant wait to do some more....Mental ray lighting has definitely become my practice for background and rendering it makes my animation look nice and clean. Also gives it the presentation quality my mentor Jason Ryan holds very highly in demo reels. Not sure if anybody is following this...seeing i have only one follower...its cool though! its nice having a private diary of animation and learning for myself.

Cheeze Wiz

Another one for testing....

Here is a snapshot of the last shot of the project...I feel bad killing off Boris...then again i didn't do it...the other guy did...lol.

Hey guys...just movin forward on this. Another clip pic added to second shot of project.
Actually inspired...by No Country for Old Men.

Last Breath
