knork



UPDATE!

Just about half-way done with scene 1, the last scene with a fair amount of animation. We're presenting our stuff for the first time this semester on Wednesday, so ideally all scenes will be animated by then. After that, I'll just focus on making/plugging in backgrounds, then sound. Theoretically this project will be 100% complete by March 16th, and if it gets done sooner, even better.

scene 12: run



LAST RUN CYCLE = COMPLETE

He's barely on-screen during the actual animation, so I'll give him some ~time to shine~ up here.

scene 10



Didn't realize I took a cap with the V-Cam, but whatevs, now's a good chance to mention it. I downloaded it here, and it's been pretty helpful with making scenes a bit more dynamic. I haven't used it for zooms or tint changes, but it definitely helped make panning/camera jitters a hell of a lot easier.

But yay, two more fairly extensive scenes left, then I'm onto the quick stuff.

scene 6




Another scene all set, even though it's pretty much just one giant short-cut.

CARRY ON.

happy anna howard shaw day




These caps aren't very exciting, but I had a pretty productive weekend, so here's an update. Still behind, but slowly catching up to where I should be. The top scene is all set, the second is only half-done, still have no idea how I want to animate the rest. 2 out of 3 scenes that involve running, glad they're almost all out of the way.

And I already effed up schedule-wise, so hopefully I can catch up over the weekend.

kitty half-time show




STILL NOT FINISHED WITH THIS SCENE :(

About 3/4 of the way there.

Also got started on two other scenes, cleaned up half of one. Really trying hard to stick to the schedule I made. I wish I would've done this last semester D:

color


Just a few color comps for the characters. The guy's supposed to be a loser, the girls are meant to be way out of his league, so I'm using the cool vs. warm colors to try and sell this. I'M SO ORIGINAL, THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE, WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT.

Here's part of the first scene I'm working on. It's one of the longest, so hopefully the animation for this one will be out of the way relatively soon. Just an example of what a "cleaned up" character will look like:

maya rhymes with ~sanjaya~


Model sheet for ~Maya II~. I still might change it before class, I don't know.

And first day of Senior Animation Projects today D: Even though I'm so close to being done with the animation from my last project (never quite got around to finishing it over break :\), I really want to try and get a jump start on my next short. I feel like I've learned so much at my internship for only being there a pretty short amount of time, and I'm really pumped to apply what I've learned to my own work. Hopefully I'm not digging a hole for myself by doing this, but I think I'll be okay.

A quick drawing to represent my current attitude towards NBC.

The way things are going now, if it wasn't for 30 Rock, NBC and I would be effin' done professionally.

hax




Just some sketches to try and get a feel of how I want the characters to look for my next short. I originally planned for them to all have beady eyes like the guy up there, but the girls' faces ended up looking too similar. I still like him better with those eyes, so I'm not sure which direction to go.
