Time to move!

I have made a new and improved blog! Still a bit empty, but I shall make an effort to fill it up with stuff that I do. On a more regular basis.
The adventures of the student life at the animation workshop will continue on the new blog where my 3'rd year and biggest adventure will be documented a little more regularly, The Bachelor Film!

I enlisted to the project known as Borislav, it even have it's very own blog: http://aboutborislav.blogspot.dk/
And it is a great and exciting project.


That's all.

And here's another old project, one that I really did enjoy.

THE PROJECT QUADRUPED!

 An animator and a CG Artist worked together on a design for a quadruped, in our case; an undead steampunk chetah, creatively named Cheetpunk, and then the CG Artist would do everything but the animation which the animator (I) ofcause did.

 I was very happy with working with my CG Artist colleague Mille. She did a hell of a job :D


 

I really am neglecting this place. I've been too busy and tired to remember to update. So there's a few of the pieces I've made these last 6 months that i kinda liked coming up shortly. For starters, here's a dialogue exercise: Going for a bit of Noir. Hi-jack my fiance for shooting reference for this ;)

Trailer project

The CGA's finished the projects! and they are amazing.
I helped animating on this one. Especially the four legged spider man. quadrupeds are fun :D

Hello again!

gosh, why can't I change the email for this blog?

Anyways, we're back in school, have been for some weeks, and we're learning Maya. It's time for this blog to get back on track.

I have here a small video of some of our assignments, featuring pixar's Luxo Lamp, the floursack and Hogan! Enjoy!

the end of the year

So it's time for yet another update. This one will contain my pictures from colour class and my first year exam.

At the moment we are having an introduction to Maya, the results from this will be my last update from the school year, so tune in again on Wednesday for Maya by n00b pictures.

For colour class we had Tod Polson as teacher. Cool guy, talented and a good teacher too. Mind you most of our class was really distracted at this time by some pre-exam stress stuff, but he managed to knock some knowledge into our preoccupied heads. Now THAT'S skills.
Secondly, I never liked paint much and for this week we would only use paint... i genuinely suck at it. But I actually feel that I've got some better control over blending the colours. Guess I should keep practising with paint...
oh well I managed to make this throughout the week..

And sooo.
For the exam, we encounter a familiar face, DANNY THE CAT from cats don't dance, yeeey! We had him for our midterm test too, so we know the character, which is a plus, the minus is we're a bit tired of him, but what the f.. for old times sake then :D
He should stumble into the frame in a hurry, out of breath, catch his breath, answer the phone, realise the caller hung up and then look at the phone angrily.

Escape project - the end

With Darko Belevski as supervisor we ended the Escape Project. It's been running for almost half a year and in the end we get 5 days to animate 5 seconds, doing clean up and color, while the CG Artists were making our backgrounds and editing it all together in the weekend. But we did it with a lot and coffee and some long nights of fun. And more coffee.
Did i mention the coffee?

Remember the character design we were doing with julia that I posted in an earlier post? Well now he moves!



I wish we had ten seconds though. I hope they correct that next year.
Anyways it was lots of fun to do this project and Thanks to my CGA pal Niels Peter :) we did awesome.
