Goats are awesome

I thought I'd share a page from my sketchbook that I drew while procrastinating from drawing what I needed to draw.

Goats, man. Goats.

October-November animations

We did a spooky light object falling animation, where I drew a light piece of paper in a witches hut.
I just now finished this wave action animation, where we animated an object (some seaweed) moving fluidly as its affected by atmospheric forces (ocean water).

Updated animations from September and October

Updated with better timing! The cannonball one is meant for us to learn how to make an object feel heavy by the acceleration at which it falls and how it affects whatever it falls on.

Windsor McCay

We were asked to create a piece of artwork inspired by the art of Windsor McCay, the father of animation. Here's mine! I really liked making it.

Here are a couple of his videos: a gross one about a mosquito http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvzAJouHh7kand this one about a bad dream about a flying house! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obnRKhgRFXA
He was a very very fast sketch artist and did his work before any modern methods of animating had been invented.

Anthropomorphic Duo!

For character design class. woo!

Bouncing Ball animation

This is my bouncing ball animation from a couple of weeks ago! Might still revise the first bounce on the way in to make it shorter.

Hero and Villain Assignment

For this assignment we were to make a Hero and Villain pair. I tried making two women working in space, one of whom is ex-military with a vendetta to kill a giant space whale, and the other a young girl who took on a job as advisor to the captain for handling dangerous deep space organisms. The young girl is Clair, she has to report back to Earth or space HQ or something (not everything is nailed down yet) on whether this whale needs to be preserved or destroyed. The older woman is Captain Annette, who has lost family to this dangerous space whale thing and pretty much would kill herself and her crew just to get a swing at it.
