Here is an angry man.
Why is he so angry you ask?
Shut Up.
Swamp Monstaaaarggh!
I've had this sketch sitting around for a while. After a few days of drawing people I though I should get away from it and try something else. I should probly start using textures to make my life easier, I did start using the pen tool for shadows though.
Big Face
Here's another coloured sketch, might do another later today. I coloured this so I wouldn't have to face doing keys, but they are now half done so I'm taking a break to throw this into the blogosphere.
Colours! Electric Boogaloo
My film last year had quite a limited palette, it was all sandy browns and rusty blue, i think my film next year will be different. I want to use lots of vivid colours that will dazzle the eyeballs. I'm still making my way through a backlog of doodles so I'm trying to colour a few each day.
I'm also working on some animation so I'm sure that will find its way onto here in the next week or so.
Summer Doodles
So I'm back in Cardiff after a couple of weeks away, I spent most nights doodling in some capacity because I remember how bad it felt starting second year after taking a few months off and not being able to do anything.
My plan for the next few weeks is to animate a few quick bits over the summer, experimenting with different styles and trying to lock in an idea for a film for next year. I have found some bits of dialogue that I should be able to start animating to this week.
I know its cheating to base the character you animate on the person the dialogue is taken from but its only a quick sentance or to so who's it hurting?
My first little doodle, taken from about 80+ pages of drawings that still need to be scanned and coloured, is a little Joseph Gordon-Levitt portrait i did over the weekend, i think i ended up with about 20 different expressions but this one will do for now.
This second pic is one of many I drew while I was back home, I'm still swirling ideas for next year around in my head but there are certain elements that I know I want to include. After having a male protagonist last year i thought i should change things up. I want my character to be feisty and tough, but young enough to be out of her depth among whoever she ends up against. At the moment I'm going for crazy action crossed with some sci fi elements.
Anyway, here's my first go at drawing what my brain makes, any feedback would be cool too.
and P.S. she will have legs. I just didnt draw them this time...

Character Performance
Another piece from 2nd year, we were given dialogue, then designed a character and animated them speaking. It made me want to do more 11 second club work, July is coming up...
2010 Showreel
This is madeup of bits from my 2nd year at Glamorgan, mainly from my final film RUN!
I'll be getting back into animating very soon hopefully, painting walls isnt fun.

RUN! now with extra pixels
Youtube decided it likes 1080p now so here's a full res version of my film, i feel i should post it because of the hassle it took to get it to render with premiere pro, i need a new editing program...
RUN!
Here's my final film, im realy pleased with how it came out. its been a crazy few weeks since the deadline. I was nominated for best 2nd year at the Glammies so the film had its premier on a huge cinema screen, it was amazing seeing the film that big. it got a great response from the audience, it was great to get a fresh reaction as iv seen this film so many times i can't be objective anymore. I should get a 1080 version uploaded soon, but for now here it is.
Time to start planning on next years film now i think.
Enjoy
