Pushin it

Human sync assignment. I tried pushing the drawings, and tested out smearing for this assigment. I think some of them worked, some not so much. I'm feeling more satisfied with this one, mainly because I got the opportunity to concentrate on this for a good 3 days without other assignments bugging me down. I think I will revisit this one again in the summer, and add in the bully and additional stuff in front, which I originally wanted.

some sketches

Some random sketches. The first one I liked, and its done on a friend's sketchbook, so I asked for a copy to post it up here. The other is a random page of cat studies I was doing to get the hang of cats, and I was kinda surprise some of my classmate liked it. It's so rough and disproportioned haha, since this blog isn't getting much stuff I thought I'd post it up too.

It threw me a little off when alot of people I talked to said they prefer looking at sketchy stuff, I thought I was the only one. I grew up in an art culture in which alot of emphasis was on cleanliness and sleek designs, so I never bothered showing off my stuff. My approach had always been trying to capture life, thanks to all the animation books I been reading (The latest one being 'Drawn to Life'! go get it), so I think alot of my sketchy stuff is not very impressive to begin with. No cool factor to it. One of my teachers use to say, 'concentrate on structure! The line quality will come on its own.' Haha here's hoping.

storyboard leica

Storyboarding leica, boards were done and music added after, so i tried my best to find a suitable scratch track and timed the panels to it.

Omg its an update!

haha, more animations.

Basic Rant

No, this blog is not dead, I just haven't made the time to update this place. I will soon, maybe a massupdate, but til then...

I been getting alot of spam comments on my blog recently. Does anyone know how to get rid of them, apart from disabling comments altogether?

Is it over yet?

Here's a couple of animation assignments from school. I liked how the weight lift turned out, even though there's a few things i would like to fix. I thought there'd be time to fix that during the 1 week break, but there's another 6 assignments due when school starts again. Like boot camp all over again.

Sire

haha welcome back. summer was spent back in singapore, sketching. now i'm in my 5th week of 2nd year, and i think i feeling a little improvement. here's some roughs for char design class. its suppose to be for weight lift toss, so i thought i'd make a squire lift both the sword AND the stone. in all honesty, i had that idea a week before we saw the sword in the stone example in lecture, but i think it ended up having a greater influence on me. the first one was what i had in mind the week before, and the last one was the final one i decided to go with.
