Ani 300 work

Right... so here's a video made for Ani 300 in 3D Max. For those not in the know, the point was to animate a solid, inanimate object, with no more than one point of articulation, and to attempt to infuse character and life into it. I would rather create something with a little more intrigue, but I suppose it's a good exercise. I've been hearing by degrees that some employers are actually becoming less interested with walk and run cycles, because they are so prevalent and safe. I'll try to keep that in mind when compiling portfolio pieces in the future!

So during the last few weeks of summer, Randall McMeekin and myself filled our time creating this short video as an entry to a CG contest. Unfortunately we were not able to submit it due to complications with the internet, but it was a fun project and good practice. If I have time I would definitely like to take on another contest - they basically involve their own mini production cycle and my last experience was just as helpful as any project I've done at Digipen so far.




The contest was to take a 30 second clip of either an historical speech or song, which were provided, and animate anything to it. It seemed that a theme of the great depression fit well with the clip that we chose, and was fitting for the end goal of the video (the winning video is to be commercial length, run on the History Channel). Again, although we didn't submit, it was a fun experience!

A HATCHET! Sorry to those that have seen this before, but I'm pretty happy with my first ZBrush outing.




This is a mask that I made in seventh grade, which I recently liberated from my old highschool.

CG275S09 Final

I realized that I never posted this, so here it is. Hopefully I can start having more 3d things to post here, especially since I have more time now than I will during the year...

So I've gotten tired of searching for a good random quote from the generator. These are from lifedrawing today - I'm glad that Pigeon is back. I've had horrible models the past few times that I've gone...

So... I have all this stuff and I haven't posted in a long time, so I'm gonna dump it all right now. Maybe I'll start posting regularly?
