Life drawing session!



So every wednesday afternoon I scamper off to do some life drawing with some other students from animation.
 This week we looked at drapery and we also had a ballerina in and she was awesome !!!



 

 
These were some 2minute sketches with the model in different positions using the fabric that she had with her.



 
most of these were done with a brush pen and it was really good practice for how fabric falls in this session and I'm really looking forward to next weeks session when we have a large model come in :)

MAJOR PROJECT AHOY !!!!




I seriously need to get my act together when it comes to weekly updates for this blog of mine... but any who, guess who got a 1st in their pre-production? 
give up?

t'was me !!!
I walked away with 70% in my project which I wasn't expecting because I thought I would get something like 67% or something like that because I felt I did hardly anything good for it (especially the initial design stuff) but woo hoo !! hope I can get another 1st for this project. 


So for this new project I'm designing stuff for a game that I've come up with. It took blasted ages to get an idea of what I wanted to do but it wasn't until I was returning from a shopping trip with a Starbucks in hand, and my trusted companion and friend Jason beside me that the idea of having kabuki masked skater thieves came about and began to take form.

Pre - Major Project PART 2






This is part 2 of my Pre-Major project 

For the project I thought of doing 2 characters. Gerty was the first to be designed and I thought that it would be good to have a male character. 

I wanted to stick to the same engineer theme and so I stuck with that. 





 
These were the initial designs for Kaiden and I just messed about with different types of outfits and hairstyles. I did look a lot at mass effect and also designs that have been uploaded on pinterest .

Pre-Major Project PART 1


Wow didn't realise that I haven't posted anything in nearly three months and I should really start getting my backside in gear when it comes to updating.

So anyhow here is some recent work from my completed character Design Project!!


As you can see the name of the show that I designed for this project is called 'Treasure Seekers'

After affect Project



Apologies for being inactive for the past few weeks.

So as the title suggests I had a project that had something to do with after effects.

For the project we had to do a 30second pitch for a local charity.
I chose Macmillan Cancer support as alot of people see Macmillan as just nurses but they do alot more than that and so i wanted to outline what they do and what people can do to support them.

Flash Project


Flash project !!!!


Sorry for the lack of activity but I am back doing my final year of university.

So for my new first project I had to create a Google Doodle using Flash.
At first I was like 'no i am not going to use flash' but a few tutorials and tests later me and Flash have been getting along just fine.

My Idea for the Google Doodle was a to have a Halloween themed doodle. 

This was my idea for the google doodle. 
I did a redesign of the G where it was more blocky and less sock like. 

 
 Here is the Finished Google doodle. I did have some trouble with the doodle itself where if you didn't click on the broom none of the animations would work so I had to scrap that idea

Call the Midwife - Title Sequence Animatic


For the other half of my project I had to create a pitch animatic for a title sequence.... It took me a while to get my head around what I wanted to do but after speaking to Nikki I thought that I would redo the title sequence for Call the Midwife
