Topic: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

It has been four months after Tripp successfully found the Xander jewel and thwarted White Skull from getting his hands on it.
Now someone from Tripp's past has resurfaced and Tripp sets out on his most dangerous adventure yet as he go's after the Golden Dinosaur.

No spoiler really. Te trick for me is remembering as I am building a set now to make sure I have a spot to place my camera.
Real pain having built a set then realizing "Uh oh, where do i put my camera."

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

Currently filming scene 2 of Tripp Connors. Stay tuned.

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

Filming has completed on scenes 1 & 2 of Tripp Connors.
Thought I would share some shots.

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

First two scenes of The Golden Dinosaur are now filmed and edited.
Audio timing for the second half of the movie begins today with set building to start either today or this weekend.
I have been thinking about releasing a clip from the film just to keep interest up for it.
Stay tuned.

Great logo. But, your sig's a bit large. You might wanna make it smaller.

Have you seen a big-chinned boy?

All fixed.

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

Filming has slowed down the past week with some but not
to much filming accomplished. Will get back on the horse this week
and commit more time to finish.
Stay tuned.

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

How annoyed am I as i write this?
My friend offered to help me with filming and he has good skills with a camera (So I thought) so we were filming for a few hours
the other night with him behind the camera and me doing the animating.
So I would ask how does the shot look? "Good." and he would shoot it.
So today was my day off which meant i could get some filming done.
I open my MacBook open istopmotion Pro and get ready to film when I realize the background in everything we filmed has a grey look to it. My first reaction is rage, vengeance, and dark side.
I sat there very angry called my friend left him a message to tell him he would never set foot into my studio ever again then I sat there looking at the stills.
Now this project has taken longer then I thought to film and with these grey backgrounds do i re shoot everyting and lose more time?
The main characters are fine and I did not want to spend more time going backwards.
So i am leaving the shots as they are and continued filming.
I really hope to finish within the next week or so and hope this does not diminish the film to much.
At a point now where I want to get it done because i really want to move on to other projects.
Stay tuned.

Re: Tripp Connors & The Golden Dinosaur Update Thread.

So....It's just got a gray-ish hue to it? Try some post-production color-correcting. Even if you can't fix it, it'd have to be pretty bad to be un-usable. You wouldn't mind putting up a few stills would you? I'd like to see the issues to better suggest a solution.

One night's worth of animating isn't worth getting upset at a friend over. I'm sure it was an honest mistake, and may very well be fixable with little effort. mini/wink

Thanks for that bud. My frustration stems more from the time spent on said film.
Have talked with friend since & all is well, He has been denoted to voicing.
The shots are useable but noticeable.
But at this stage I jvst want to finish,
l will post those stills once l have finished.
