Back to Basics

So yesterday before that mantis fiasco, I had my first life drawing session up here. I kind of liked this one better. The instructor gave some pretty good instructions. He had us start by drawing the body as just boxes in 2 min gestures. I kind of got the hang of that, but I sent a step back further today and played with stick figures. On some of them I drew the boxes over the basic ovals, and even drew in the body on a couple. For the rest of them I was just trying to convey the poses in as simple a stick form as I could. I think it was pretty successful for a first off.

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.
