Need help...

I'm quite certain that without anyone taking some of the load off this film cannot be completed, at least at its current format. I might found someone in Sony, who'll be helping me with the modeling of clone. Also, one of my buddies from school, Alex Liebert, might be doing some animation and rendering work with me, which could potentially save my ass. Additionally, Efrat, a talented artist and a friend, who helped me come up with the idea for the whole thing, might be, maybe, helping me with texturing. These are all maybe's. I need to find someone who'll be as devoted to this project as I am. If I can find someone like that, hopefully another senior in Pratt, I'm pretty sure I can complete the film. If not, if it's all up to me, I'd say it's like 60%-70% I'll make it (maybe a shorter, simpler version, which is a shame). The remaining 30-40% scare the shit out of me.

Oh, by the way, I managed to move myself into a better place in Imageworks for the remainder of the internship (I'm gonna be here for another 2-3 weeks): I'm now officially staying in a big room which houses the entire animation department for "Surf's Up", Sony's next feature animated film (with surfing penguins). I had a 20 min. conversation with Barry Weiss, senior vice president of Imageworks, and he told me I should establish a mentoring relationship with one of the senior animators while I'm here, so he could help me with my film throughout the year, and also help me secure an animator position with Sony once I'm done. So the next few weeks are critical.
