Production Calendar

This will be the tentative schedule that I'm holding myself to for my animation.
I'll be doing most of this animation in batches of shots, since most of them are simple or short.
Batch 1- Shots 1-6
Batch 2- Shots 7-10, 12-14
Batch 3- Shots 11, 15-19
Batch 4- Shots 20-22, 24, 31
Batch 5- Shots 23, 25, 26, 29, 30
Batch 6- Shots 27, 32-35
Batch 7- Shots 36-39
Batch 8- Credits and catch-up time

  1. 1) write in the past tense: "shots 2 & 4 animated."
    2) be specific: specific shots, specific tasks done, specific dates.
