another peek! portfolio time is drawing so near :0

Character WIP

I'm painting a bunch of characters, I thought Id just post a little peak! 

Woodland Nymph Puppet

This is a little something I've been working on for my portfolio, she'll just be a small part so I thought it would be safe to share her :) Shes still lacking feet (i'm waiting on the magnets for them!) so thats why they're not exactly proper photos :P I'll post full body ones once shes completed anndd I'll post my concept drawings and paintings of her soon too!

uuuhhhh so much to rant about but i have noo tiiime! hope everyone had a wonderful christmas and new year celebration :) I know I did! ok..now off to paint! 

**EDIT**

I forgot that I wanted to share three wonderful artists that I discovered and that have inspired me through the process of creating this puppet :)

Miss Clara 

Chris Sickle 

Christine Alvarado  (I found links to the top two from her wonderful blog :))

I suggest taking a look at these three if your specifically interested in puppet making!

Action Analysis Completed!

well....almost.. :p there are still some things I'm going to tweak/add in a few days (just small things like a glow on the candle, fixing the boards b/c they make no sense (lol)... etc)

The final Action Analysis :



The final scene:



The pan test:



Thanks to everyone who helped me out with this! especially in the compositing stage!! I would have been really lost without all of the help, and most importantly I learned a LOT from my class mates! Thanks again guys :)

This little project has been the source of so many late nights and physical pain, I'm glad to say its over :)

Now I'm going to continue working my butt off on my portfolio! That probably means I cant post much from it... third year seems to be the year of very little blogging :(

Group Film - Style Proposal

Bleh, just posting because its been a while! This was done for my third year group film project as a suggestion of how I thought the BGs and Characters could look. The colours and lighting were tweaked by my group mates Chris Hong and Alex Chow :)

Wooley Animation Test

Just a test of my stop motion puppet, there is supposed to be a traditionally animated butterfly that hes looking at and it lands on his hand :) i may redo it a bit slower tho!

Classmate Sketchies!

just killing time in story class waiting to be critiqued :) this is not a serious post btw lol just had fun doing these and thought i would share! :)
