Day one: 11sec club March

Yes I know its technically day 4 or 5, but I've just started. Anyways, I remember one of my lecturers telling me that animations should be at least 70-80% planning. Which for me is true enough. Otherwise I would find myself sat with an open scene file in full on zombie mode. After a day of thought, a few sketches and a scene setup later , here is a screeny of my initial idea in scene.

As with my previous entry (attempt) I will be using the morpheus rig, not only because its awesome but because the author is constantly working to develop the rig, so any bugs or what have you have long since been ironed out (i hope). This rig offers a great 'customgeo' tool which allows quick alterations to the character, so my rig should at least look different from anyone else who is using the same one and there usual is.
Ideally i would have gone for the other set up for the scene. But since I spent half my setup time yesterday getting to grips with the new Mac setup and magic mouse, I'm going to put my simplistic scene layout down to my current lack of knowledge of the software. Later projects should yield a more interesting scene. Or at least more than four walls and a prop, yes I know I am focussing on my animation and putting any time into anything else would be a pointless deviation from my discipline but other entrants have put some great scenes together and some of these guys get the low ranks too. I've got all the time in the world to learn that stuff and anyway, its time to crack on!
