you got to be kidding...

i don't know what went wrong. ok, i activated motion blur for some layers but 19 hours? c'mon!
i guess i have to stop the render and change some preferences. i fiddled around there to prevent that "image buffer" error that haunts me all the time.

hans improvement

i added some details to the hans animation. like the one beneath for example, which is gonna work as the background for the titles at the end. also added some motion blur here and there, and tried some other effects. a new, full render with new sound is coming up soon.
additionally i am working on red riding hood, but i don't want to spoil anything, there is going to be a surprise.

again

ok. i rendered it again with some more trees and depth of field and stuff, so it should have taken even longer than before, but it hasn't. i found out it was "shadow diffusion" in the light settings that made rendering so hard.
however, nearly the same but even nicer:

sneaky peaky

i just couldn't keep my hands off one of the best known fairytales in the world (probably). you should be able to guess from the little preview here what it's going to be.
rendering took about 2 hours - for 16 seconds of animation goddammit. probably because of lights, camera and stuff.

Hans Guck-In-Die-Luft (ver 1.1)


ok, the first render of the complete animation was done after only 8 hours and 49 minutes. i have already corrected some errors, but some details are still missing. new sound is in the making aswell. you're welcome to leave a comment about what you think of it.

rendering...

i am done with most of the animation and now rendering it in one piece for the first time. last time it took several hours, and now it's a lot longer so my computer will be busy all night i guess.
i'll probably have to fix some errors and stuff when it's done, and i will add some more details here and there, so i'll have to render some parts again afterwards. anyways, tomorow you can already see the render of tonight, a sort of preview though.
additionally, new sound will be added, but that is something for later aswell.

i've been making great steps this week, working on the animation i am busy with since a while. i think it'll be finished by the end of this week. just a little more patience.
