Assignment #4 - Treadmil Walk

We started putting details on the character we are working with; Wendy. This was done on ones since its a treadmill walk. There were little things I needed to fix, but here she is.

Assignment #3 - Reaction/Take

This animation was based on expression changes. Basically I had her curiously looking at something, and then jumps back in fear (I guess it was gonna jump at her or somethin).

Assignment #2 - Direction Change

Our first assignment for animation class was to draw a bunch of gestures using te high speed rough method. This was a head turn / direction change animation. I didn't like my end product, but will try and make the next animation better.

Assignments Done on Harmony

This semester, we have Computer class, where we are learning how to use Toonboom Harmony. Our first assignment was the bouncing ball and then 2 expression changes. I went with the "Oooooh, Ahhh" expression lol)

Assignment #2 - 3 Point Perspective

Our second assignment is to create a 3 point establishing shot layout. So far I have a thumb approved (bottom right hand corner). Once I get the rough approved, I'll post the final.



Here's my approved rough.



Here's the rough/clean version.

Assignment #1 - Shaded Eggs

This was an assignment for our life drawing class. I'm not a shading type of guy, so this assignment was a bit tougher for me, but pleased with the result.
The darker tonal shades needed to be darker...

Assignment #1 - Box and Goofy Head Rotation

Second year of animation started and we are already stressing out with a lot of school work, but its fun (at times). Here was out first assignment in design class.

This is how I got the box to rotate.

Summer Layouts

Hey guys, yes its been a long time since my last post. I've been busy with work and I was also doing some school for the first half of the summer. The second half I attended layout classes thought by Rio. We also got to attempt 3 point, which is still in work in progress.

Enjoy!

This was my first start on our first assignment, but then after some different ideas by Rio and a couple of more fixes, I re-did aother one.

Here is the better one.

This was a pan we had to do for our last assignment.

First Year Animation Is Done!

This year was intense, yet I learned a lot, especially second semester. I would like to thank Anne Morgan, Cory Perkins, Jeff Ross, Lesley O'Reilly, Paul West and Tom Crook for teaching us. I'll try and post stuff I do during the summer and get ready for another year of animation! Have a great summer!
