Ok, so first, the big news, we've changed up the opening of the film. On the advice of one of our more competent lecturers this morning, we've decided to alter how our film starts, placing the Runner in the supermarket, rather than starting him out on the sofa.
This does render the animation I'd done before irrelevant, but I'm ok sacrificing it for a better film in the end.

On top of this, we also have some completed backgrounds from Xinyi, who is doing absolutely stellar work with it. Her art fits within the film's style while still looking gorgeous, and I feel I can't hype up her work enough.
Below is the first of the backgrounds she's produced so far, and several more should be following by the end of the day

On top of this, I've finished the running symbol we need for the fridge's run cycle, so now that can be plonked into the shots that we need it for, along with the Runner loop. Should speed things up.
Lewis is also working on his first shot, the one where the glass explodes from the energy drink. That should will likely be finished before or on Thursday.
Progress is definitely being made.
