WEEKLY NARRATIVE

This week I set about the job of creating the concept art for the slideshows and the main mementos. Outside of the class I was also busy with wrapping up the final elements of rigging for my robot, which took a considerable amount of my time. The Eagles's Superbowl parade was Thursday which also took a great deal of my allotted time. This proved to be a little bit more difficult than I anticipated. While the slideshow images were easy to story board out, the mementos took a bit of finagling, although I think I am on a path that I can be comfortable with. It took far too long for my tastes to get on this new path, but I feel like they will come out well. The only major problem is that they are done via contemporary physical means rather than digital, because I have lost the tablet to my pen. Also I came up with a possible name for the sister: Elena. I don't know where the name came from, but I couldn't get it out of my head when I was drafting the concept art up.
