Rendering and toy set up for the establishing shot - Going Live

Now this was fun!!
I finished off the lip sync and secondary animations for shots 24, 26 and 27a today, and then began to assemble and place the 3D model toys, in Maya, to create a heap of toys for our establishing shot. We realised that we can create a sharp opening shot, which combines both the first and second shots in our 'storyboard' sketches, currently on the PreVis.
It was fun to create He-Man, in an ungainly position, unceromiously dumped onto a wooden hoop toy post! A real contrast to when he is marching about being a big know it all....
Great to see the intial renders, showing natural daylight in the sitting room. A fellow student, Stathis, has been looking at tutorials and working with Sang at the University, and the output renders are great to see. Very realistic!

Maya interface, showing a locked off camera shot.
Rendered view, including lighting. More positioning to be completed tomorrow, but a good indicator of the final feel of the toys as a group.
