Big Updates Please Read ASAP

[Nathan]

So after talking to the motion graphics team, some changes have been
made.

Ruth- They want the renders of the tree by friday, which means I'm
going to need to start rendering the trees and plants by at least
Wednesday to get them rendered out on time. So this means I need the
trees by, um, about yesterday. Is that possible? They said the most
important thing is that the trees have money on them. Can this be
done. Contact me as soon as you can so we can figure something out.

Chris- So they decided to go with the after effects ripple and that is
something they are going to be taking care of now. So it would be
helpful if you could help with the changes that got put on my plate. I
could use help getting the plants and trees placed and rendered out.

Danielle- So I've been running the numbers and I don't think it's
possible to get these rendered out by friday. I could probably give
you 1 tree by then, but each plant is going to take 3 machines roughly
4-6 hours to render these at HD resolution.
So, the only way I can figure to give you more than one tree is if we
get these to you saturday night? This gives us the ability to come in
on saturday and set up a render farm in mutliple labs. I know this is
really pushing the deadline on you guys but I don't see any way around
this. I'm open to any suggestions to getting this done faster.

Thanks for the update Nathan. I think Adam and I can come in on Sunday (I need to ask him). We could use that time to complete the rest of the project. Let me know what we can do to help. Would you need me to stop by to get the rendered out trees/shrubs file on Saturday or can they go on the network share folder?

That sounds good. So I'm going to spend all day saturday getting these rendered out and will either put them on the network or give them to you in person on Sunday.

Awesome - Thanks Nathan putting in the time to get this done.

Ok, thanks for the update Nathan. That was pretty comprehensive. 

So are we still meeting on Thursday? 

Also, as far as rendering goes, don't forget that labs are open on Fridays until 9 -- so that's an option.

Hey Danielle, my guys can't find the final rotoscoped version on the network. Do you know what and where it was saved?

[danifi...@gmail.com]

We made some big changes on it. I have it on my person. Didn't realize you needed it... sorry Nathan. I was going to fix some errors Glover suggested to fix on Monday and incorporate your guys' work when Adam and I render out the final video on Sunday. I can send a clean cut of it right now via email - I can just fine tuning some stuff right now. Might take about 30 min... What email should I send it to? Do you want a Quicktime or the AfterEffects file?

Hey Nathan,

Sending a Quicktime video right now. It is going to take a little time... I am working really hard, trying to do a over haul on cleaning up the footage. You will have a completely rendered out final video and the AF project in your box on Sunday, when Adam and I complete the final render. I am soooooo sorry I did not pop some file in the Network Share before your Friday class. Hope this helps... Feel free to give me a buzz 406-471-5091 or call my hubbies phone 360-909-5270, my phone may die. Let me know what else you guys need. I don't think you do, but if you need the AF file before your render party tomorrow, let me know tonight so I can arrange to do so ASAP.
