3D Animation "Thinking Character"

Final assignment for 3D Animation, a character acting and lip synced to a voice clip. I just used one of the sample clips, from Dumb & Dumber and the rig is Koko. I didn't mess with the ears or tail on this rig, I have no idea how they work. :x

Animated in Maya.

Go Go More Stopmo

Two more Stop Motion asssignments I haven't uploaded yet: the walk and the club smash. Clay animals were harmed in the making of the club smash.

Action Analysis Final Leica

So here's the fruits of my labor of first semester. Leica including layout pan 6 seconds of animation. Doing this lineless style saved me so much time and I love how it looks!

STOP MOTION IS GO

Here's some stop motion stuff I've been doing. I've dabbled in stop motion a bit when I was younger, despite it scaring the hell out of me as a kid haha. I'll be having more and more fun with this as the year progresses for sure. :]

Took some cool pictures during our lighting workshop as well. Lots of fun!

What's the Point of Living

...if you don't have a dick?

Sound clip is from Donnie Darko. Done entirely in Flash. I didn't get a chance to finish cleanup on this, although I'd like to. I'd also like to fix the whole animation up a lot, I'm not that satisfied with it.

Crits welcome.

Also, the youtube thumbnail looks weird :S hmmm

Dancing Titties. Oh, and Expression Changes

Last animation assignment of the semester, the expression change. I didn't do much actual animation for this, instead I drew a lot of expressions. I'm sure you can tell this was the last assignment too!

Happy holidays~ DRINK, EAT AND BE MERRY (and sleep a lot)

Walk & Run Animation

As a followup to my last blog post, here's my walk & run animation with Baz (walking) and Jon (running) from my Character Design assignment. This was THE HUGEST PAIN to get to work in Flipbook. I might give this a rework sometime since there wasn't a lot of time to get this done, but I did what I could with the time I had.

Weight, Lift & Toss Animation

Woo! Second animation of the year done!
This is my weight, lift and toss assignment. The character needs to pick up a heavy object and toss it. I used my gator character, Zagser for this, though he's a simplified model here compared to my character model sheet of him. I took the spines out so I didn't have to animate those. The object is a giant pill bug :3


I didn't want to get too nit-picky with this one because of time constraints. I might revisit this and make it a little better sometime.

Sorry for the quality. I drew everything too big and had to shoot it on two pieces of paper... watch in 480p for best quality.

Wave Boat Sack Animation

First Animation assignment of 2nd year DONE. I'm not particularly proud of this... but I got it done on time. Instead of a boat, I made the sack ride a dead fish. The wave caused many frustrations and so did getting things to sync correctly... but I believe if I did it properly the first time it wouldn't be an issue. OH WELL.
