The day started as we settled down comfortably at our desk area. Eric, a fellow intern at SESI, did a dry run of a class he will be conducting tomorrow. He did some preparation like writing down what he needs to say or what to do at a particular time. The topic were attribute-related stuff, couldn't say much as it might be confidential. Before going for lunch, I did some research on Z-depth passes (learning) from Peter Quint's Vimeo videos. Also did the some shot of the previs, which will be shown to Steven.
As for lunch, we went to Nordtrom's food court. Got myself a beef teriyaki noodles.
Gone through Peter Quint's archive of videos and picked on Z-depth and motion blur stuff to look on.
Here are the links to those videos:

Depth of Field : http://vimeo.com/5656364
After going through them, I did some self testing. It was simple to do. As my first shot required DOF (Depth of Field), so I guess this was useful.
orientation handle
focus handle
Once finished up with the tutorials, I continued working on the previs. The timing of the shot, the camera angle was more or less what I want. Also I applied what I learned about the focus/DOF stuff to the previs.
Here's the previs.

Somehow the video doesn't playback, if it does then its good, if not click on the link.
