The View From Down Here

Well, I guess that's an appropriate title for the introduction post. Not only is it the title, and the overall theme (if this had to have one) of this blog, but I'm also kind of short, and local to Southern California.

I'm a total nerd and actually thought of all of those meanings before I decided on a name. I'm just a total nerd anyways. I spent my middle-school and high school days watching Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and playing Magic Cards. I won't go into too much detail about myself, I'll leave that for me to fill out in the 'who am i?' section.

So I've basically started this as a way to write, and vent, and just as a way to get my voice out there I guess. Since I've gotten out of college I have been working as a low-level, boring, cubicle-imprisoned employee at a moderately failing skin care / cosmetics company. I am totally out of my element, and want out as soon as I can. I want to go back to school to get a B.F.A. in Media Art/Animation, so hopefully I can tell you how that journey goes, starting from the ground up (see, there's another one of those word plays on the title). But overall, this blog is just a place for me to write about anything I want.

That's all I have for now. Peace.

Remember that pose I promised a while back? Just did it today, enjoy.

Walkcycle

Well before Lost, I completed my 2nd go at a basical walk cycle. It's missing some in-betweens but I just wanted to get those steps down first before I tried anything else. It's in the gallery. But here it is anyways. [caption id="attachment_56" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption="Walkcycle #2"] [/caption]  Based off the guide from the Animator's Survival Kit.

Neglected

Yea, so that's the funny thing about me having a blog. I can neglect it. I was never that much of a writer in school. Both academically and for fun. This is something I really should do though. Would do well for me to brush up on some writing skills, and by association, my communication skills. Nothing much has happened since my last entry other than me getting mad at some more drivers, doing some more practice animations, and oh yea...not moving home anymore. Whatever, it's probably for the better. Having not lived at home for almost a quarter of my life, it would be just too weird to move back inside those walls. I should go now, I'm still on a high from the "LOST" finale and just having gotten back from seeing "Star Trek" in IMAX. Pretty awesome.
