The plan

Pixar internship demo reel
  •      Submit completed demo reel for the Pixar summer internship by March 1.
  •       Will require short film to demonstrate the ability to story-tell through movement while implementing the principles of animation.

o   2 characters, knight and sheep. Knight will try to butcher sheep for food, but his goofiness and clumsiness will be his downfall.
o   Requires fully modeled and rigged characters, but textures and environment is not a priority.
  •      Once finished, compile the animation with other choice work to create an effective demo reel.
  •       Will occupy Milestone 1-3

Lip synching exercise
  •       Animate a character singing a song, with appropriate body movements to match.

o   May use character created for the Pixar short film, or a pre-made rig.
o   Creating a new character for the purpose of this animation is not ideal, but could be done.
  •      Should be able to finish by Milestone 6 or on April 8 (the rough draft day).


Knife throwing animation
  •      Short animation of a guy trying to throw knives at a dartboard, constantly missing and getting increasingly frustrated.
  •       Could just use the same knight character from before.
  •       Finish by April 27, the final due date.
