Day 35

Spent the whole morning and part of the afternoon at a school event. Wei Jie and I were helping out there. Still informative though, there were talks by Lucasfilm, Dougle Negative and Ubisoft. I was in charge of looking after Ngee Ann Secondary School. Toured them around the school too.

When I went back, I started to edit my spiralling effect. I managed to get a spiralling down effect,which is needed to show that the demons are spiralling and falling downwards due to the tornado. I made some custom controls to control the size and height of the spiral so I can export the system as a digital asset later on.

Mr Leong finally helped me install Vicon Blade on my computer in our FYP room, which is awesome. Now I can multi-task and process while I do work on Houdini. I tried again to batch render, but it crashed again. The problem now obviously lies with the software,not our computers, I'm on a 24 core PC...............
