So, i'm finally blowing the dust off the old stringth animatic and getting down to some work. I retimed some things but i haven't really found the right music for it yet. Perhaps some wonderfully talented musician might give it a try?
Thats the animatic. I've just printed out all the frames to use as reference on my new scanner/printer! It works like a charm. Granted i haven't done any real heavy duty printing, but the colors look pretty darn close to me even on regular xerox paper. I've also written out the time between frames so it should be easier to animate. All i have to do is find the ream of animation bond that is hiding from me!!!!
Oh...yeah it's true, this means i have two scanners.
The scanner is the Canon Canoscan Lide 600F. After i figured out that it needs the original to be superflat for a good scan, i loved it. The color accuracy is great and it is also fast.
The scanner/printer is also from Canon. It is the Pixma MP600. Comparing the scanner, this guy is a little red in the color accuracy, and it seems to push the contrast up a little so lines are sharper which is nice and blotches are more defined which can be nice. It is also a little slower, but all in all it is quite lovable. The cover is also much heavier so i don't have to hold it down.
And now, i can scan twice as fast as you can!!! Of course if i'm working on one project, i cant split a scene between the two scanners because the colors will come out slightly different.....
Oh and for dinner, i made snap peas, scrambled eggs, tofu, onions and grapefruit in a curry marinera sauce. It is really quite good. Topped with parmesan it makes me happy.
