Team works always been a problems to me, not everyone but mostly, there's one thing that actually hurt me is.....i heard my director discussing with another members concluded that our story is pointless, and boring! i was speechless after going through so much things and you said the story got no sense of purpose!!! They even think the titlr "Frankie and Brain " i came out is childish no meaning, so they came out thier own version of "Bathing time" which doesnt make more sense than mine, even cricized by my juniors. The reason they say the story is lame it's because they say no moral value, and it's no meaning for Frankiestein to takes out his Brain.
so they held a discussion with my mentor again. This time they are well-prepared. they asking my Mentor about
1) Story is pointless, why Frankiestein can take his brain out
2) need moral value not clear of the story
3) title
Face-palm!!!
My Mentor just said it's might be Asians are not familiar with Europe culture, because that's what Frankeistein does! i feel sorry to them cause they approach with a lame-ass question causing us to embarrass ourself, about the story it's pretty clear with the Mentor it's just they tried to played with the fancy camera angles, and the title does ring a bell, like Tom and Jerry classical animation. Come to think about it
why don't they ask me bout it before they ask stupid questions?
fter going through so much things
I didnt join most of the meeting cause i confident with the story, it's just the director having less-confident in the story due to the reason his couple friends said it's meaningless. They don't even understand !
A lot of times, i will find myself share no interests in study with my team members, the only things i'm common with everyone in this world is gaming and cracking jokes. I am a problem to myself and my friends around me you can say that ....like i care!! Few weeks ago, they had done a grave mistake, they have done a previs which is 80% different from the story reel. The way they did it, wasn't cool at all cause they didn't even think about what is the story reel for if you don't even follow it ! I'm just nuetral playing my role as a player not picking a side on my mentor or my team the only thing that kept me as a player is to learn from people who are better than me. The things they changed in the previs including, camera angles, timming, and animating resulting 30 seconds more than the story reel. It made the previs so dragging and boring. My metor just played the few second of the video and hit stop because its hard for him to judge when a previs and story reel are playing together. You can see an obvious mistake there, but my team mates they all are so confidence and even asked me to change the story reel before the critics start. During the critics session, my Mentor just rebuked us for "acting smart" cause the previs has added a lot of worthless things. I don't know what the gang are thinking but i guess this would be a consequences of "trying to impress someone by adding a lot of weird stuff making it worst". I can see dissapointment in their faces, somehow deep inside me is happy about it. I knew things would happen if you don't follow the blueprint.
Having less confident with the story will causing me to feel lack of interest working together as a team. I tried, but the only thing i feel happy and enjoy is being myself....I have stepped out of my comfort zone, i'm currently learning to composite, render and doing lighting. However, i have no problems of cracking jokes with people i do enjoy the moment we are laughing and gaming in class. Peace
