Dreaming of the third

this is my 3rd project real i will ned alter it a bit as i forgot to add a bit inside.
the credits currently reflect on who has work currently being used in the project.
so far so good hey.

its fun watching them come to life and knowing that i am making this magic happen, i only want to get better and doing this is the only way ON WARD TO COMPLEATION!!!!!!

Dreaming of some reference?

Ok as a hint or warning for 1st years and any one else who grabs film refrence for animating please rember to wear a light colour. film refence is the only time in acting you do not want to wear your stage blacks.

When doing film refence it is important to be able to see were the joints are and how the body is moving, the reason io say dont wear black is because black hides the joints. My sugestion is to wear white and light colours as so all the joint may be seen.

snow mans bad dream

we had to animate this snow man freaking out to sound what do you think?
how'd i do?

Dreaming of putting some power in that step?

starting from the bottem working my way to the top scetch i have been planing out how my character will walk. In this walk his power center is his head, this is also his biggest feature.

(children's heads in a lot of animation's and animated films get bigger in comparasen to the body, this brings more focas on the over expretional faces)

his arm leads him throw but its his head that will be pulling him allong or at least thats the way i currently see it. when i animate i might find that his arm pulls him forward but thinking about it now it could even be his shoulders, ok now im just thinking to much on here so any way leave your comments and what do u think will lead and why?

throwing a dream

so arfter playking aorund with the arc in graft editor of maya(a 3d programe) i manged to make a square arm throw a brick

every one else is posting animation video's so i wanted to post this one NA now no can say i dont blog like i should even tho i dont as much as i should lol

=the monkey bars dead
=One of the angle's with the girl leaning into the boy Dead
=one of the aproch ball scences dead

arfter presenting my pitch i gotten give some great advice
such as
- use the shadow of the monkey bars to create a feeling a trapment or incloser
- primary colours for the good friendlys and more agressive for the other guy or more lonly colours like deep purples or dull greens

only thouse who know what im talking about will understand this so if your confused thats why

Jumping into a dream

Arfter the spending the morning looking at timeing and spacing more so the spacing than the timeing, we did two exersizes with this the first is the one with the coin to get the spaceing, this was made with love stress and monkey jam a coin and multiable bits of paper to support my habbit of srewing it up a few times first before getting it right.

imaging a part of the dream

this is the introduction shot for the blue haired child.
the colours for this charactor have been chosen to show he apart of the same group by having his hair the same coloue as the shirts of the other two, but at same time he is issolated by by colour by having a green shirt(this is subject to chance)

the camara angle was chosen as a close up of him with a far shot of the other two that the story is currently about, he is shown looking at the other two as to show that he whants to be apart of the play.
