this.

It’s a trailer for the latest Sonic game, and while the game may not turn out to be much good (we’ll see I guess), that FMV is flipping ace. I really love the animation on Robotnik, it’s very cartoony and theatrical acting. Check out the anticipation on this, it’s awesome -

]]> I did this for my Creative Character Animation module at university. I got an A for it, which was nice. I dunno why I haven’t put this up before to be honest, musta forgotten.

Anyways, here it is:

]]> Being an animation student (no more!!), I have done some animations over the last 8 months or so. I’ve not put them up online yet, but there is one work in progress and an older showreel, have a gander if you like, sirs:

They’re both finished now, and much better, but I’ll upload those and link to them later.
Cheers for looking anyways, feel free to let me know what you reckon in the comments.

]]> Since I’m not really “feeling” the drawing at the moment I’ve done a bit of 3D modelling today. Pretty simple stuff, because I’m still not that confident with anything complex, plus it’s for my final year project which coincidentally doesn’t requre realistic sets. How nice.

I must stress these things ain’t finished, and will probably get redone later into the project, but I’m just throwing stuff out there at the moment. I’m leaving the texturing for now until I got a solid colour palette for the piece in my head. At the moment it’s all over the place.

Well
Well

A lot of the stuff in this project will involve doing normal stuff in odd, but nevertheless practical ways, as evidenced by this well. The bucket on the left still needs a handle, and the rod needs some string or whatever fancy technical term fishermen use for string.

I’m also looking to make sure everything is uneven or off kilter. It gives it all a homemade look, plus it means I don’t have to be as precise with my modelling. Clever, eh?

As far as life news goes, I’ve just starting listening to swing music and enjoying it. Is that a bad or good thing?
