John K's "Cans Without Labels" - Leaked 2013 Project files stolen from server

Quote:Here's something i've been holding off releasing for quite the long time. and since john k is now living in a ditch somewhere, i guess it's time to release the entirety of these files.

Found these in the exact same place i found the Spumco comic book files in. amazingly, no password at all was protecting the zip file these were in.

Included in here are: animatics, rough BG's, Layouts, storyboards, layouts, and .mov's that are amazingly huge.

Oh by the way, happy belated 10th birthday Cans.

Quote:Hey guys!

Just wanted you to know a little bit about these files.

1. When John started this project's pre-production years ago the sequences were labeled differently. ORIGINALLY Sequence 04 (the cat sequence) was labeled "Sequence 3" so sometimes you may find that images are labeled "seq3" where they should be "seq4"

It is the only numbering issue that I am sending you. I tried to take care of everything else. So word to the wise; with the layouts listen to the FOLDER name, no the FILE name (the scene numbers should all be correct)

2. The "setup guide" was John's initial way to keep track of the different BG's as lots of scenes use the same "setup" (or BG, rather) so that would be the best place to look for figuring out BG's.

also on the note of BG's I agreed strongly with you that we should NOT use CG if we don't explicitly need to. Again it IS unto John, but the project will A. get done faster, and B. LOOK a lot better (in my opinion) if we just digitally pain the BG's. (we have a very talented BG artist in LA that is itching to do some more John K BG's, too)

3. The "Storyboards" are older than the "Thumbnail boards". As a result the Thumbnail boards are better to follow most of the time. BUT I sent you the original boards, just in case it was easier to see John's thought process when he initially drew the actions.

4. I am not 100% certain what John will be having you finish, but regardless, context is always good, so I sent you ALL the boards (except for seq 3 which I don't seem to have on hand)

and lost but not least
5. I attached the animatics where they were last time John rendered them. He HAS done more work on scenes, and will continue to do so. So I will just keep sending you them as they (significantly) are updated.


Think thats it for this batch. The CG is NOT UV'ed (sorry about that) if you decide you want to use the CG at all I will unwrap what doesn't need to be changed. (Kitchen_06.ma should be the current)

Cheers!
