After Effects

Ok this is a short blog for a small piece of work.

First assignment on After Effects and its nothing special. Some cheese rebounding off a hasty rat. (Oh and a bit of trivia-mice hate cheese but rats loooove it!)



The motion of the rebound is to slow to portray the "bounce". That's all this time. Really nothing special. Pfffft!

Squirrely

More animation.

Just spent an morning and an evening on this short character animation-a rodent called Squirrely. I wanted to practice facial expression and general body language. I chose this rig because this wee dude is charismatic and the rig is wonderfully intuitive. Check it out.

Sqirrely


Well that's squirrely. Any thoughts and feed back would be really appreciated.
And that's all for today.

Drawing again

Yep. More drawing talk.

I've spent some of my holiday practicing a few character sketches for a third year project and also doing some of my own thing. Not so long ago I had another drawing rant and displayed a drawing "work in progress." This thang down here.


And then I...er...finished it.



Ok I will admit that I'm pleased with how it turned out. It was a biro pic so if I made a mistake I couldn't rub it our or easily undo it on some digital program with an easy click of the mouse and I really thought I was gonna mess it up hence I put the work in progress in an earlier blog. Anyway it's done, so I can breath again.

Well thats that. Hay I just did a blog with almost no ranting! Huzzah!
