2nd Semester Animations

I learned my lesson from last semester - press harder...or use darker pencils :-P


The final assignment was to animate a character performing an action, set to music.



For this one, we had to use limited animation using UPA - style characters for a 2-person dialogue.



Our first quadroped walk...this took a loooooong time to do. It's also the only animation that I've done for the entire semester that I don't completely cringe at.



Exploding volcano special effect...yeah.

Playin' Around

Some random stuff I've found. I did these awhile ago: the monsters are pen and pencil crayon, the cows were pen, with digital colour and the girl is just your regular collage-type thing. Aaaaanyway.

Some Life Drawing

These poses were anywhere from 30 seconds to 7 minutes long...if I'm remembering correctly.

More of the same

Here we have a clean up of the drawing from the previous post. Also, some expressions. We were supposed to draw the faces of our previous characters from memory ...clearly mine is faulty. Ah well.

Just talkin'

A character design assignment from the beginning of the semester.

Poor Bunny...

This is still one of my favourite flash animations. He he.

First Semester Part 2

Since I can't sleep, I'll post some of last semester's character designs. Isn't it amazing how many more flaws you detect once it's been digitized?

A cleaned up Roman Soldier:







Note the stylish and professional paper crease.











A WWII nurse and medic:




I think she turned out alright...




















... the medic on the other hand, he looks a bit odd.












The Final Project:




I present to you a geriatric Dorothy.
Critique away.
