After the one-to-one feedback session with Mike, he suggested:
- Test how the 2D cake and characters will interact with the 3D table, consider making the table 2D in that scene if it looks weird or wrong.
- Create a full pipeline test animation using one scene from our animatic, choose a scene that showcases everything. Complete this scene fully; rough animation, line art, colour, shadows, lighting and backgrounds.
- Look into post processing nodes and lighting in Blender so the scene looks less washed out.
Homework
This week I textured a corkboard, plate, cup and party hat for the background.

I also started a full pipeline test; I animated a rough walk cycle for the arcade owner pushing Lollipop as well as blocked out Gumballs movements. This clip is still in very early production however I believe it captures the bounce energy we want in the final animation. The timing still needs some work, and the owner stops in place, I need to fix these issues before moving forward in the pipeline.

Nicole textured the table, chair and completed all three variants of the arcade machine.

She is also currently working on lighting the scene and using post processing nodes.
