Digital Paintings

A while ago I downloaded the "Brushes" painting app on my first gen iPod touch. I was able to paint a pretty good Remy and Eve from Ratatouille and Wall-E. That was before I took life drawing and since then I never really touched the app again. My mom recently got an iPad 2 and was able to download the free version of Sketchbook Express which is ok, but I don't like it as much as Brushes, which I haven't bought for it yet.

Anyways, last night I decided to try doing another piece on there with what I know now. I ended up drawing a Tardis on my iPod, and a figure on the iPad. Here they are.

I think I can start to get a little better at this...

Class 2 Shot 1

Hey what's up minimal readership? I'm finally done with my first animation for my second class. But first, I'll rewind a bit. My new mentor for this class is Martin Hopkins. He is trained in classical animation from Sheridan College and has transitioned into 3D, with his entire professional career pretty much at Dreamworks Animation for the last 13 or so years. He is currently working on Shrek 4, which he claims isn't as bad as you would think and is better than Shrek 3; which I haven't seen. So far he has been pretty great. He sometimes gets out of his chair and acts out something on the camera for you to see instead of just relying on drawing over our frames. His inputs have gotten me from my initial blocking pass up to the polish of the final (although he hasn't seen that yet). Anyways, here is my progress from blocking to final: You might also find this pretty interesting. After we set some keyframes, this is what we use to refine and polish our animations. ...

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.
