Wait! She's back!

Or is she?
Hi everybody!

Sorry I've not posted anything in a while. I've started rendering out shot 5, which is the longest and most important shot in the movie. In other words, the MONEY SHOT!
This is frame 1051. It's the first frame from this camera angle of a 150 frame shot. Paris has not yet seen the sign and does not yet know the trouble she's in. She's just trying to get out of this sticky gross mud!
Anyway...Why is this taking so long you ask? Well, unlike simulating out in Real Flow which I could leave running 24/7, I can only simulate out 1 to 2 hundred frames at at time. That and having to work for a living slows the process quite a bit. I hope to get a lot done this weekend, and I've got a vacation coming up.
As the scene progresses, I have been stopping and systematically painting the girl's skin everywhere the mud touches her body, including her hair, bit by bit with Photoshop. It's a slow and painstaking process, and it's not going to be perfect. I'm going to make some mistakes, I'm going to miss some things, but I hope it will be good enough to add another layer of realism to this. I did the same thing in Disappearing Act and it came out well, although the girl's movement were a lot less complicated in that movie.
Again, I'll keep you posted.
Cheers!
