week 12 - 13 - some more sickness, and a finale

These couple of weeks have been a nightmare, i made some test renders of the shots and they worked fine, problem is i was having a constant migraine while working so i had to rest a lot, I couldn’t look at the PC and I couldn’t finish any work, so i lost almost a whole week or doing nothing, i did do some work where i set up the shots for render but u had to fix some values and i had to re-shoot some shots as they didn’t work well. So that meant more tracking and more time wasted. So this week was completely useless, week 13 however, worked a little better. I had a lot of work done and i was able to start rendering, of course there were some problems along the way but the mock was fully approved and the lighting was approved as well, all i had to do is get approval for the render settings, which took a long time and when i did get the approval, i got a horrible flu, my whole body was in excruciating pain and I couldn’t move, so i was bedridden for 4 days, this pushed me back a lot and i had to rush my work. The next week had to be rushed, i had to render everything, composite and finalise everything in 1 week, which was done because i used 2 PCs and the render farm online, which were a huge help, but the movie was produced, i had a last minute issue but thankfully i got a little extension and got that out. the way i dealt with that was once i was done setting up a scene, I sent it over to the other PC and rendered it, then i would go back to my PC to set up a new scene. once i got done with setting that up i rendered it on the render farm, i then set up another scene and let it render on my own PC.

This was a tiring process, took a lot of energy and tons of headache medicine but it got the job done.
