The Axe Man cometh

Been messing around with this digital painting for a few days now. There might be a little more I'll do to it later, but I wanted to post it since I haven't been putting things up as much this semester. Hope you like it!

Will Farrell sound clip animation

This was for a gesture-to-sound animation project. The clip is from Zoolander.

Some sample backgrounds

These are my second assignment for my background painting independent study, they are sample backgrounds from what I hope will be my senior thesis piece, "Amphora". Oddly enough, two of the backgrounds may never appear in the piece as I am cutting it down. Still, they were great practice.

Amphora Thumbnails Redux

Here they are again, but better organized and hopefully more "viewable".

"Ran" Backgrounds

Ok, so my first assignment for an independent study focused on background painting for animation was to pick five scenes from the samurai classic "Ran" and do some quick Photoshop paintings. Here they are:

Thumbnails

I didn't post a lot over my winter break, but I did thumbnail out what I hope will be my entire final project/senior thesis (it took me a lot longer than I thought it would, even with itty bitty sketches). The project is called "Amphora", and I'll probably post on it a lot over the next year and a half or so. Anyway, I wanted to get a first round of storyboards done to include it with my "junior year" portfolio. I plan to clean it up in Photoshop later, but here are the thumbnails.

Another Panera session

Here is a little Nico Marlet-inspired (the colored pencil with marker over it) life drawing session at Panera.
