Clothed Figure Workshop Drawings

Nude Figure Workshop Drawings

Final Render for Freakers' Ball

This was a group project that I worked on with graduates students at the Academy of Art. It took about six months to complete.

My credits included the rough and clean-up animation for the second and third shot where the M.C. picks up the Jester and the digital rough and clean-up animation for the magician in the last shot. The portion of animation that I was responsible for was drawn digitally on a Wacom Cintiq using TVpaint (an animation software program). In addition, I did some in-betweening and cleaning up for other animator's shots and characters.

It was great experience (thanks to a great director and a wonderful team devoted to the project) and I look forward to working on the next group project!

Wushu in 2D!

Thanks to a Maya plug-in called Grease Pencil I was able to add a little 2D element into the video.

Thesis Update

Well, it's been another long time since I've posted... anything. At least I'm consistent with that. I've spent most of the semester working with Sherrie Sinclair, Director of Traditional Animator at AAU, fine tuning my story, nailing down character designs, and drawing layouts. I'm finally at point now where I can start animating my short. Below is a test animation of one of the characters in my story. A basic walkcyle with a little bit of personality. I used a new animation program called TV Paint. Thanks to David Nethery for introducing me to the program and to Powermates. So far, I've really like using it. The line quality is great and its exactly what I've been lookng for in an animation program. I'm looking forward to posting more animation as soon I can.

Getting back to sketching

It's been three weeks since I've gone out sketching. I know! Here are some drawings that I did before I left for Florida. I'm looking forward to starting my thesis project and posting as much as possible about the progress.
