Walk Cycle (Adjusted)

Added a bit of a bob to the hips for my MooM walk cycle. Now it looks better.


Run Cycle

A lazy run cycle I did. Could be smoother, but it was just an exercise. Done with the Norman rig.

Walk Cycle

A goofy little walk cycle I did with the MooM rig. Didn't take long at all, and just playblasted it out. Looks way better on repeat in Maya though. Did it game style (walking on the spot) because film style is hard.

Goblin Creature

Another quickie, done in pen on paper. I should really use a better camera than my phone camera.



Left Handed Drawing - Chameleon

Quick one from last night. Drawn with my left hand. Pen on Moleskine.

Breakdancer

Pumped this one out on Friday afternoon, finished it around 1 am. Just a breakdancing girl.
Working on getting better at drawing people, and working with/understanding light too.

Life Drawing Exercise

Just did some quick sketches to practice poses. Should be coming up with a storyboard for a walking animation soon.

Animation Assignment - Storyboard

Just quickly posting this here because the teacher asked me to. This is the storyboard for my Principles of Animation assignment (the little dude).

Strange Animals

Started doing this last night, finished it today. Already working on something new, because creativity flooded my head without warning.

Honey Coated Pliers

Didn't know what to draw so I went on a random noun generating website and generated the words "pliers" and "honey". This was the result.

Animation Assignment - Finished

After like 4 days of rendering, and a couple of hours of putting it together with sound effects and everything, my animation is done. It's only like 30 seconds long too, which is depressing considering how long it took to complete.

Eagle

Just did a little drawing for a friend, because I couldn't think of anything to draw.

Deer In The Forest

Decided to just do a bit of 2D stuff, only to realise that my 2D stuff still sucks. Ah well, practice makes perfect. This is really bad though, but I thought I'd post it anyway.

Animation Assignment

So I skipped the Very Emotional Juice Box exercise completely, and went straight to doing my assignment. Even though this isn't our character animation assignment, we still got a little character to animate. I've been working hard on it because I want it to look really good. I'm going to render it out using the Arnold Renderer, to make it look really pretty. Here's what the final product should look like.

Ball and Tail Exercise




Another animation exercise: animating a ball with a tail, jumping on stuff. Just working up to the actual assignment, where we have to make a shortfilm with a Rayman type character, before we go on to actual character animation.

Seesaw Exercise



Just a short animation of a ball launching a cube off a see saw.

Cannon Exercise Finished






Finished off the cannon exercise. Animating the cannonball destroying the wall was time consuming because I didn't use dynamics at all, I just animated all the bricks.
