Animation Assignment #9 - Stitch Dialogue

  This is an animation I just finished about 5 minutes ago - the assignment, as evident in the name, was to animate Stitch to a piece of dialogue we recorded ourselves. This particular voice in courtesy of my friend Irish, who did a very squeaky version of Chris Sander original voice.

This project was rushed, but I'm rather happy with the result. Better than the last attempt at drawing stitch at least. Added the background on a whim. Just 5 second sketch to give some setting.

....For some reason I recall Stitch sitting in a high chair....

Animation Assignment #8 - Dialogue


      Our first official dialogue assignment, including acting. It was interesting to do at first, then became hard and tedious... But I'm satisfied with the project overall. The sound clip is from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Design Assignment #8 - Expressions and Poses



    Same character as the last design assignment. Expressions and poses with clean-up overlay. These were a little rushed, but I'm learning that I can't always fret over every little detail.

Animation Assignment #7 - Walk/Run



   Continuing on walks, this is Tita from L'Illusioniste (a very amazing french animated film). This particular assignment was focusing on walks and runs, in perspective. And me, being the usual try-hard I am, picked a massively complex and realistic character. Well, this is what I got. Oh well...

Design Assignment #7 - Character Turnaround



    This is a simple character I design for class. Had to make something a TV studio could animate. The coloured digital copy was the original concept, while the turn around was classical. The front 3/4 feet are wrong... and the two parts are off model. A good attempt at a stylized character though.

Life Drawing Log: Week 7


I never understood why every life drawing class I've been in spends one day on drawing the blind-contour way... like, I understand that it'd be cool to draw like that. But I have never met anybody who can.
