Tin Soldiers and Project Trust Me

Last update before I leave for Tokyo!!! XD

Frey as Celty (Project Trust Me)

This week has been pretty awesome.  Being able to hang out with my family and relax was defiantly needed.  Got to hang out with two of my friends, beat Prince of Persia, SLEEP, Thanksgiving Dinner at Grandmas, sit at a football game in the snow, and much more! Over all it was a very eventful week and I got art stuff done too.  My Mums Christmas card is finished and we’re almost done inking Project Trust me!! I’m really happy with how both look so far!!

Goodbye Fall!!

Fall Quarter 2010 is officially over.  Pretty happy with some of the work I’ve done this quarter even though it felt mostly like growing and not final pieces…except maybe in stop motion.  Need to really get into work mode for next quarter though but more on that later.  This quarter I took Stop Motion, Environments Props and Structures and Math. 

Stop Motion Set with Puppets.

Color Kid and Monochrome

Stop Motion was exciting overall (even if the class moved really slowly).  I got to work with some characters I’d been playing around with for a while: Color Kid and Monochrome.  Color Kid I used as my main character and his puppet was built first and later I decided to build Monochrome as well.  Over all this class was awesome…on the shear fact that I LOVE STOP MOTION ANIMATION.

Pg. 1 Environments Props Final

Environments Props and Structures started off as an easy class and got progressively harder. And although I put allot into the class I still think I could have done better.  The final was fun but I feel I slacked off when I was running out of time.  Need to fix that or Lyle will kill me next quarter.

Pg. 2 & 3 Environments Props Final

Speaking of next quarter im taking History of Animation, Principles of 3D Animation, and Visual Storytelling 1.  Should be lots and lots of work but I’m looking forward to it.

But first TOKYO!! Yes that’s right less than a week, expect lots and lots of updates with pictures and doodles. I will probably update again before I go so look forward to it!!
