Another Animation Project

Recently I finished a short animated project. This animation was less about storytelling and more about just practicing animating in general and potentially creating a piece I could put in a demo reel later. In this animation I simply used a rigged model I found on blendswap and animated the character to run and jump over boxes. Below are screen shots from the project. And the full animation can be seen here.

AH Character photo-op

I made some clay models just for personal reference for animating. Then just for fun, I posed them and took a few pictures. These are not the for sheer colors of any of the characters, but here they are in all their glory.

'A H' Animatic

An animatic is an animated storyboard. Animatics can help flush out the story, keep animators on the same page, and help with the timing of a sequence. Click the link below to see what the animatic for 'A H' looks like.

'Accidental Hero' Cartoon Underway

The next cartoon I'll be making is about a bumbling bunny superhero. This young bunny stops the bad guys and saves the mayor's daughter... accidently.

The character sketches and reference clay models are nearly done and I'm about ready to start creating the environment in this cartoon world and digital versions of the characters.
