Bouncing Ball

Here are the latest tests from my 3d animation class. I've recently learned how to incorporate squash and stretch into my animation.

Introduction to 3d animation

This semester I have recently been introduced to 3d animation. It is very different from animating traditionally in 2d. The funny thing is that it has been pretty easy for me. Using maya for animation has been pretty simple so far. I am really looking forward to doing some real solid animating in 3d, so i can really see what this new medium can do.

Crayola Fun

Get a pen, a pad of paper, and some Crayola markers! For instant fun, just add WATER!
Here are some sketches I've been doing to experiment with elementary school supplies. It is quite wonderful to discover that you can make cool art with cheapo supplies. I just used a ball point pen and Crayola washable makers. No Faber-Castell or Prismacolor here.







The markers work kind of like watercolors, only they are slightly more permanent. They are not as workable, but it's better than watercolor pencils in my opinion. It's also super simple if you want to do any sketching on location.

Winter Break sketches

Here are a few sketches I've done over the break. I'm continuing to practice faces and dealing with people. It was Alysha's idea that we do a sketch a day. If you want to see her sketches go to this link: Art stuff

Look at these happy people! Do you know why they are happy? They had a beautiful portrait done of their baby son, and they loved it! What a great present for Christmas or birthdays portraits can be.
