Scale

Scale based Layout Assignment!

Playing with scale for a layout assignment. I'm not very comfortable with layout, but this wasn't so bad!

Head Rotation & Lip Sync

)

For animation we got to choose any character and do a head turn, expression change and lip sync.

I wanted a bit of a challenge, so I chose Brother Aidan from Secret of Kells. I had to break a lot of the stylistic animation, as the prof wanted to see a lot of three-dimensionality and squash and stretch.

I had a lot of fun with the expression and lip sync, but the rotation was extremely tedious.

I hope I did him justice!!

Digitools Flash animation

So for digital tools, we're learning flash. I've used it before, but never with frame by frame animation. We had to create a scene showing anticipation, action and reaction, so here's mine!

There are a lot of flaws, but with a short timeline and more of a focus in understanding the software, I'm pretty happy with this c:

(Rough animation - keyframes and purple)

(final animation in gif form, please excuse the bad quality of the gif!)

Semester 1 Demo Reel

Instead of going to bed to get sleep for my first of many 8 am classes, I thought I'd get to uploading this!

So after my first Semester of Animation at Sheridan College, we had to put together a Demo Reel. So here's some of my highlights of the semester!

Unfortunately there isn't anything really cool there yet, as we've been learning the basics, but I've learned a lot!

happy new year!

here comes 2014!

Ball & Tail

So for our final assignment in Animation, we had to animate two balls interacting with each other. These balls, had to have tails to show that we understand S&C curves.

I was frustrated in the beginning because we had to do a lot more than the year before us, (an additional ball character) but in the end, it turned out to be fairly fun. Despite the looming deadlines for my other classes, I managed to finish this with time to spare and I'm extremely happy with the result!

(The final version that I handed in had the fat one sleeping for a little longer so that their entrances were not at the same time, but I forgot that file on the server- whoops)

Layout Pan

A Horizontal Pan for Layout class.

I honestly don't know if this is the proper resolution that he wants, but w/e. He was never clear so this is what he gets.

I had a lot of fun with this and I want to fool around with pans a bit more when i get time c:

(Without Characters)

With Characters

Bianca: Expression Sheet

Meet Bianca! She's my sassy Club singer!

I'm pretty sure this was the final assignment for Semester 1 in Character Design, and like all the others, it was a lot of fun!!

I tried to challenge myself and create a character that is different enough from Theodore (from the first project).

You'll probably see a bit more of Bianca in the future c:

Ball Toss

There are definitely issues, but i like how it turned out.

No time to do anything anymore ug.

Royal Winter Fair 2013

I was extremely nervous about this trip and my drawings, but oh my gosh it was great!! I got to spend the day with my best friend (who i barely see lately) and I actually think my drawings aren't half bad!!

*I apologize for the cruddy quality screenshots. There were not the final edits of my pages*

I favour the studies over the gestures for sure!

Camera Angles

Layout definitely isn't my strong suit. Add unclear instructions and it makes for total confusion and zero confidence. Overall I think it turned out alright, though I'm still nervous about if I did everything right.

I'm not fond of shading either.

Got a lot to work on :/

Theodore

Just got around to finishing up my character posing sheet. (Still might fix a few things up)

Here's my poor unlucky, kindhearted character Theodore.

And here are some early expression sketches done while I was still developing him and getting used to drawing him.

Hands and Feet

It's taken a while, but I'm finally completely finished my hands and feet for my first Life Drawing Portfolio assignment!

Title Page

I'll probably change up the letter colours eventually but mah.

Title page i had to do for Digital Tools class. I have no good drawings of my 'new' hair so I just draw me.

Didn't turn out how I planned :/

Vacation Daddy is tired.

Still need to clean up some areas of the scan, but here's my first Character Design assignment!

(I'll probably colour the 3/4 eventually)

Life Drawings -Week 2-

Finally moved these from my phone to computer, so I'm putting them up here!

There are the life drawings I liked from my second class! They are much better than last year, but I still really need to work on my 30 second poses :/

But Thurman is such a great teacher and although I was kind of freaked out about this class (i was so worried) I'm actually really enjoying it so far! c:

^30 sec.

^1 min.

^3 min.
