Pixar brought Ratatouille to our lecture

Ziah Fogel from Pixar was here today, she spooke about their latest production Ratatouille. It was very interesting to meet this giant, and to hear all about their production line, all the way from first idea and brainstorming, to finished products. Reason why it took so long before I told you about it was because I had some problems getting pictures from the lecture. But now I got them, and here they are.. Ziah and her rat!

Meeting and shopping

That's pretty much what I've spent my time doing this week. Bought a new pair of shoes and a new hat yesterday, it's pretty amazing, I havn't found a hat that I actually fits in, since I was in like 8:th grade.

Anyways, our project is moving forward with a good pace. It's alot of planning and meetings right now, discussions between clients and the agency. We are working in blocks of three groups now, both beeing the agency, the client and the oponent group for eachother, so it takes a lot of planing and timing.

We are keeping the same groups that we had in our last project, so it's me, Axel, Samuel, Raoul and Martin again, tha G4.

Time for morning meeting now, gotta get back to you guys later, hopefully with some pictures too :)

Kroki

We had kroki today at school, don't know what that's called in english, but it's a form of sketching. Here's some of my pictures, one 35minute sketch and some 2-5 minute sketches.

Concept and development is done

Last friday was the last day of our previous project. We were at the bank last thursday, presentating our idea, everything went well, we got the investings we were asking for. That felt realy good. It have been one of the most fun projects so far and we had a great time working with this, it's almost sad that it all has to end :)

Here is a movie from our presentation, might give you an idea of what we have been doing for the last couple of weeks.
