Finals Checklist



On Sunday, May 5th, please make sure you have the following items turned into the server. For each project, you should turn in two folders: (1) Your toonboom harmony and storyboard folders so I can check the art itself and (2) renders, photographs, or scanned in images of any other content you have created. I have created a FINALS folder on the server with a clear example for how you should save everything. Below is the same information, listed for your convenience.


Proper naming conventions for your folders are also listed. Remember to convert all videos! (open your movie after exporting it, and re-save the file).
