Big update

Hope you all had a happy holidays.

Quite a bit happened regarding the assignment since my last post.

For starts, I've added a sky background to hopefully convince that this is a mountain area. I've took a picture from my brother's room (my bedroom faces the woods so the trees would get in the way of the photo)



With this, the scene was ready to render. Rendering all 480 frames (16 seconds) took some time but not too long. I understand that the longer the animation and the more complex the scenes are, the longer it takes to render. However putting all individual frames into a video editing software (I've used Vegas Movie Studio) took longer; in fact it took me all afternoon yesterday to finish it. It was worth it though as this meant I could put in sound effects to add atmosphere to my scene. I've found a forest and snow sound effect from this site for free:

While the fire and rain sound effects were downloaded from this site which I've used for last year's assignment as well (which is also for free).
