Stop Motion- Puppet Smash

This was a stop motion assignment at Sheridan. It was to be completed in 2 hours. I started doing it, and my camera moved. It was already 35 minutes. I started over again, and I accidentally pulled the camera wire and it moved again. It was an hour now. I started all over again and finally got it done in 35 minutes! :D

ecorche studies

Royal Winter Fair '2011

These are some of the drawing I did at the Royal Winter Fair this month. Some are really quick and others are a bit rendered and finished. I was thinking more about the whole composition and environment rather than just the animal itself.

Pan Layout

Pan layout for action analysis including overlays(OL), underlays(UL), character and effects level. I am not sure how is it going to work out when I actually pan it. But for that I will have to separate all layers. Will try it out soon...

quick poses

quick thumbnails and character exploration for the action analysis animation.

character designs

some quick character design exploration for the group film.

Stop Motion - Car Crash

Stop motion timing assignment. This is straight ahead animation which means we can't key in first. It is done in one go. It can't be re-timed as well.

Mushroom Jump - Stretch & Squash - Maya

This was my first animation attempt in Maya. It was mainly to explore the possibilities of animating in Maya using stretch and squash. I did not rig the mushroom but animation was done by me. I like how it feels like it has got weight to it when it falls.

foot studies

Some 5 and 10 minute foot studies. I can't draw hands and feet at all but I am trying to learn it.

Heroes and Villians

This is the final version. I kinda rushed it in the end. Not the best I could have done.

Heroes and Villians

 We had to create heores and villians based on our life drawings done in class. I chose these three and tried to communicate a story out of it as well. I am not sure which composition is better out of the two. Still debating~~! I'll put up the final cleaned up version soon.

This is my first composition

This is my second composition. I kinda like this one better as it pushes my eye back into the composition from both sides.

life drawings

some short poses(1,2min)

'A Golfer's Dream' work reel

This work reel was done for the action analysis assignment. More revisions to come soon..

Weight lift and toss animation

 

Second animation assignment in second year....i spent 80% of my time doing the lift, no wonder the toss is crappy..!! I should learn time management....lol

Wave boat animation with sound

Here I just added some sound to the wave boat assignment I posted earlier.

Leica for 'I Love You'

This is the leica I came up with for the 'I Love You' storyboard posted below.

'I Love You' Storyboard

This was the first storyboard we did in second year. 'I Love You' was the theme given to us and we had to come up with our own stories and characters. I had my story and characters from an assignment I did in first year, so I used those for this storyboard..

Wave boat sack animation

This is the first animation assignment I did for my animation class in second year at sheridan college....Since it is a cycle, we had to do a hook-up. This was the first hook-up I did in animation...and it was a real pain...the splash didn't turn out well either..
And yeah, I did the wave 5 times...lol
