Fourth Milestone

Cinematic has finally been glued together after all this time and in order for me to achieve this I have had to put in double the time in order to be ready to render at least one day prior to the deadline just in case any errors are encountered.


From everything I've mentioned I now had to bring it all together as one cinematic scene including animations, models, lighting and even compose a soundtrack and record dialogue with to be layered on top of the final rendered piece.

Below is a screen grab of my scene and the final rendered cinematic

Everything went according to plan as far as rendering is concerned, but when it comes down to my dialogue and soundtrack I feel like I should have put more time into them as the dialogue doesn't quite deliver the right feel for the kind of character Zak is. Where the soundtrack is concerned there isn't anything specific that I dislike about it and it expresses exactly what I was aiming to, but it's because I only got it done this week alone when I've had all this time.
