Just a little bit of warning for everyone, as i think i am ahead of most people at this point. I recreated Fred crying for my acting piece. I made quite a few key frames to get it as accurate to the reference footage as possible. It was going to take over 6 hours to fully render each pass, and just under 13 hours to do the both. This needs to be done way in advance, it is no good waiting to render everything out 3 days before the deadline, as even this could be pushing it.
As an estimate, theses are how long it took to render each scene.
Tennis Ball - 1hour30mins per pass = 3 hours over all
Bowling Ball - 45mins per pass = 1 hour and half over all
Shuttlecock - 2 hours = 4 hours over all
Walk - 1 hour per pass = 2 hours over all
Action - 6 hours 25mins per pass = 12 hours 50mins over all
Therefore if you render the MINIMUM out, and only the first fully rendered versions it could take up to 23 hours 20 minutes of rendering! That is a long time for some projects that if put together only last all of 17 seconds each pass!!!
So its worth getting it done ahead of time, you'll save yourself a lot of stress later on
