A little bit of something new

Alright update time!

I'll start off with two new animatics.  They're very basic.  We have a strict time limit of 20 seconds and the basic premise is given to us.



Frogs and tomatoes!  And grumpy old men!



Rats and pool - and loud noises, too!

Finally, here is my primitive theater assignment.  It was a lot of work, but I'm pleased with the final product next to the ball bounce, it's a good start.



Poor, poor, Reelie (that's his name).

Gorillas, Zoltar, and Balls - Oh My!!

Hello blog!

I will now post updates!

First - a gorilla! --- Walking!

Too amazing.

A ball .... bouncing!  Incredible!

I kept it super basic as my first computer animation project - next one will be more complex.

And finally - my first attempt at an animatic.  Story was provided to us so we just did the leg work.

And that's all folks!

Hopefully I'll post more in the near future.  This year is incredibly busy.  Ridiculous!

Quadripelagal Walk Cycle

The title is a scientific term.  Look it up.

But in all seriousness, here is finally another solid update.

Below is a finished quadruped walk cycle.  Doberman was used to base the model on.

It was fuuunnnnn!

On a VERY different note...

More to come - IN.In.in.THE.The.the.FUTURE.Future.future...

France 2013

Been a while since I've posted anything - primarily because I don't think I have too much to post.  Until now.

I just got back from a 3 week trip to France - St. Colome to be exact.  I brought some watercolors and thought I'd teach myself how to use them.

Here are the results!  Left to right top to bottom = first attempts to last.

The course of work eventually found a balance between using watercolors with small touches of color pencil, white acrylic pen, and ink pen.

Walk Cycle dun dun dunnnnn

This is my character walk cycle.  The design is a variation of lizard used in my previous post.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with this species (Uromastyx):

About Time!

Last couple weeks have been crazy for me.

Especially the this past weekend, but it is almost over.

Here's some work I've done!

Final project for one of my classes.  Is based off of the work below...

These pics are of my final 3D Design project.  Spent significantly more time on my character than his environment!

Lastly, here's my final project for another class.  It's another attempt at digital painting again.  Unfortunately, the glow effect went out of control and I couldn't correct it before the due date.  I think I'm going to try and redo it over the summer and just take this as a study - one helluva study.....  I got pretty good crit notes from my teacher so it should be better the next time!

I'll post another animation piece in the very near future!

Shadows make the mind wander.....

Here's a quick project.

Process work and the final pencil work.  Touched up the levels and a teeny bit of contrast in photoshop.

Think as a personal project I'll do the other two thumbnails, too!  When I have the time of course...

Loved this project, too bad we only worked on it for two days :(
