Todays Acheivements

Well today i managed to complete a few more objects for my scene, i finished off my guitar, created a bass guitar and i also created some turntables. I may have gone slightly over board with the turntables by adding 2 monitors to them. These may be taking away before the end. Pictures will follow tomorrow.































For the last 4 hours or so i have been messing around with reactor. I have been trying to animate one of my cymbols so that when a drum stick hits it the cymbol will sway a bit. This has been quite the failure. After looking online for tutorials i have found nothing apart from videos that people had created. This was no help as they did not mention how they created it. I did find one tutorial with a light that was knocked by some boxes but stayed in the air. I attempted to use the same method from this on my cymbol. It was done using the Spring reactor tool which held the cymbol in the air, however the cymbol then swayed far too much out of place and acctually off the stand, all very frustrating and i will now be leaving it for a week or so. This way i can concentrate on more important things.

A final note, i start creating my lighting today. I Have the lights and the lighting rack modelled and some spot lights created in various colours. These also move around the scene and i will soon have them flashing on and off.

I will update this post tomorrow with pictures and videos, untill then im going to attempt to sleep.
