notes from underground

The first final renders from my animation final project are in! After a surprising turn of events last night, this project has gone from being my second-to-last project to being my final undergraduate project ever. Fairly momentous, though also somewhat daunting… all the more so because the deadline I am racing to meet is in a meager four hours, and I’m only done rendering one shot! You’d think I’d have more to show, I started weeks ago and in this final run-up to the deadline I’ve been awake and working on this for roughly 40 hours. At least the other (cooler) shots should be done in good time to present them at the screening and wrap party on Thursday.

Anyway, here’s the image:

Image links to a higher-res version… it’s a pity the depth map shadows are such low quality, but any higher and it would have been going significantly slower.
