​
Continuing UVing efforts and finalization of the 3D animatic turned in. There is a major family emergency so I'm not sure how much work I'll be getting done at the moment.

​
The family emergncy is my grandma being in the hospital with covid and things are rough. It was hard talking with the group about what needed to be done. I don't remember what else I've done this week beyond trying to communicate with my group. I'm trying to invite a friend with some 3D experience to give us some critique and general advice but I'm worried my efforts aren't gonna be worthwhile as many of my group don't seem interested/aren't replying. Oh well, I suppose.

I modeled a cabinet but didn't get to much else. My grandma passed away.

I've been very unable to do much of anything this week and grandma's funeral is Friday. I haven't told my groups specifics of why I'm not going to be in class but there's so little response to messages it's disheartening. I've spent some time trying to do quality control and fix modeling/UV mistakes cause our group apparently doesn't check their work before putting them up for UVing or texturing. Me and Sonya are reiterating that everyone needs to check their own models but I wonder if people will even pay mind to it as people barely seem to ever pay mind when messages like that are put out.

Work ground to almost a halt this week. When I was getting ready to get back and contribute, my roommate started having extreme pain and ended up in the hospital twice and having emergency surgery. I'm still off mentally and the stress of my roommate's pain reactivated the grandma trauma. My group members have been very kind in regards to this situation, but it still sucks not being able to do much to help. I'm barely functional, but hopefully with my roommate's surgery, things will be a bit easier to approach in the coming week. I worked on some quality control and tried to start on animation work, but it's not as much as I feel I need to do.
