Various Work - October 2014

Some various digital work of mine lately,  It's been a bit busy so I haven't been able to doodle much aside from thumbnail sketching for CAN2 - Which is good practice for storyboarding!

Some fan art thrown into here, featuring Jinx from LoL and Madame Leota from the Haunted Mansion.

DRAGONS NOW. A speed sculpt I did about 3 weeks ago and a doodle of Spyro, I loved those games! Still do!

As of now I'm currently in CAN2 and STE at Fullsail University: doing moderately well considering how tired I am! It's long hours and hard work, but it's fun and engaging.

Can 2 - Various Works

This month my classes consist of CAN2, as well as STE (Software Technology). I'm enjoying myself in both classes, even when it gets hard. The month has been dotted with 7am trips to Wawa for coffee, and my classmates taking naps in various awkward places: the product of some intense 5AM labs. However it's been fun so far, and I wouldn't change the experience in any way if I was given the chance.

I have some preproduction and final results i'd love to share on here, such as 

All of these are from our first project in CAN2 - The pantomime. Using only movement and the principles of animation to create a small story and a simple character. Super fun, and i've been learning a lot! (Even if it's through me just making a lot of mistakes.) 

Visual Effects - Final Renders

I've chosen to share the Final render, Cool light and Warm light renders of my final project for Visual Development. I enjoyed this month very much, and Learned a lot about Mia Material passes, caustics, and overall lighting in mayas hyper shade. It was a very interesting month, and I learned quite a bit. 

Continuing Zbrush Shenanigans

I've been working on more brush shenanigans-  this time trying to find a good personal workflow for hair! zspheres and curve tubes help a LOT with this!

I hope to get more practice in during the weekends, and during down time after class this month! 

CAN1- Final Walkcycle animation

My final for CAN1 this month- Bugsy the bugs walk cycle and turn around. It was very different to animate this guy, but I learned a huge amount about the graph editor, and counter animating. 

VEF1 Final Project: Soft Bodies

The last project in VEF1 this August was a soft-bodies simulation. For mine, I created cubes of jello falling, and bouncing/jiggling with moderately realistic jello/soft-body physics.

Rendered in MAYA2014 - Models and Simulation by Emily Childrey - Music by Jessie Rose.
