The final stretch!

Feb. 9th, 2026
Production Log preview

We're sooo close to the finishing line in terms of shading and lighting: The destroyed version of 'One' has been shaded and also the close-up tendril is done which means that next week we'll be able to send the final shots to the farm.

This week was hijacked by the 5.1 splash screen which is going to feature our adorable Critter! (stay tuned for the release if you haven't seen him pop up in the daily builds already). The rest of the work was re-lighting chunks of 060_dance and the ending of the film. I also finally added a proper title card to the film.

This week I was sick (again), so my time and brain were quite limited by that. But I still managed to wrap up the shading of One with the unconscious state, as well as the shading of the close-up tendril with a layer of brushstrokes, also the unconscious state and a slight wiggle on the bulbs.
