UPDATE!

IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE MY LAST POST. I KNOW I HAVEN'T UPLOAD ANY UPDATE ON THE ANIMSQUAD SHOT I WAS WORKING ON. SO HERE IS MY LAST DEMO REEL WITH THE LAST VERSION OF THAT SHOT. HOPEFULLY, I'LL BE UPLOADING A NEW DEMO REEL SOON WITH MY LAST ANIMSQUAD SHOT.

THE REASON WHY I HAVEN'T HAD MUCH TIME TO WORK ON THIS LAST SHOT IS BECAUSE I CAME BACK TO SCAD AND I'VE BEEN EXTREMELY BUSY WITH CLASSES AND FREELANCE WORK. SO HERE I'LL ALSO POST A PROGRESS REEL OF ALL THE ANIMATIONS I DID FOR MY 2D PRINCIPLES CLASS WITH PROFESSOR TROY GUSTAFSON. I REALLY ENJOYED HIS CLASS AND LEARNT SO MUCH. IT IS ALWAYS GOOD TO GO BACK TO THE PRINCIPLES. THIS SPRING QUARTER I'LL BE TAKING ANOTHER CLASS WITH TROY, ACTION ANALYSIS II. THIS CLASS IS MORE FOCUSED ON ANIMATING THE HUMAN AND ANIMAL BODIES IN A REALISTIC WAY. IT'S GONNA BE TOUGH FOR SURE, BUT I KNOW I'LL LEARN A LOT FROM THIS.

SO, HERE ARE THE TWO REELS. ENJOY!

ANIMSQUAD CLASS #01 - EXPERT WORKSHOP

IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE MY LAST POST. DURING MY BREAK BETWEEN WORKSHOPS I'VE BEEN WORKING ON MY PORTFOLIO, MAINLY BECAUSE I'VE BEEN THINKING ON RETURNING TO SCAD. HOPEFULLY I WILL BEGIN MY SOPHOMORE YEAR ON JANUARY 2015 :). 

SO, LAST WEEK I STARTED THE EXPERT WORKSHOP AT ANIMSQUAD! I HAD A GREAT FIRST CLASS WITH MY NEW MENTOR, ANDREW CHESWORTH. I CAN SAY THAT EVERY THING HE CRITIQUED ABOUT MY SHOT_1 BLOCKING WAS EXTREMELY RICH, LOTS OF "AHA MOMENTS" HAHAHA, I DONT KNOW IF THAT MAKES SENSE BUT ANYWAY. 

TONIGHT I'LL BE SUBMITTING MY BLOCKING + BREAKDOWNS AND AFTER THAT ITS A LOT OF WORK WORK WORK!! :).

CHARACTER ANIMATION REEL JUNE 2014

PROGRESS REEL - ANIMSQUAD INTERMEDIATE WORKSHOP

ANIMSQUAD CLASS #12 - INTERMEDIATE WORKSHOP

THIS WAS MY FINAL SUBMISSION FOR THE INTERMEDIATE WORKSHOP AT ANIMSQUAD. AWESOME WORKSHOP BY THE WAY, LEARNT SO MUCH IN SUCH A SHORT TIME. I HAVE TO SAY ONCE AGAIN, MICHAEL WOODSIDE IS A GREAT MENTOR I REALLY OWE HIM SO MUCH OF MY LEARNING. THE WORKSHOP WENT BY EXTREMELY FAST BUT I THINK I DID TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY SECOND I PUT INTO MY ANIMATION.

OK... NO MORE TALKING... HERE IT IS. ILL BE UPLOADING FINAL VERSIONS TO MY VIMEO CHANNEL AND I'LL BE POSTING A PROGRESS REEL HERE.
