This week I got a bit carried away, I somehow left the lecture thinking about lights, animation and timing sounds, all this whilst listening to some dance music on my journey home and the brain kind of got away from me a bit.Lesson one for me here was the curve editor, I spent a lot of time in the curve editor editing the lights on and off and their color at specific times and.
lesson 2 was tracking movements, the spot lights are linked to the boxes that house them so that i only need animate the box in a particular direction and the lights follow, the lasers are direct target lights and their targets are partly manually key framed and partly constraining to a path. lesson three was obviously timing it to the music, it was hard work and I have not done a lot else since leaving the lecture as I had to render, check, adjust, re-render and so on......

Not sure how well it will time with the music when streaming over the net but it does actually line up.

Enjoy

It ends a bit abruptly because basically by the time I had spent 60 hours to animate 45 seconds I kind of got the idea.
