A couple of things

I've been working on a show for Copernicus studios as a key animator for the last 8 months, so I have been busy adjusting to working life. I thought I would pop in and share just a couple of things I  have made lately!
I was working on this digital painting tonight, to play around with using colour in photoshop. I thought maybe I could do a self portrait each month of this year to help me learn to paint in photoshop, and as a kind of artistic progress marker.

Some older stuff I made and didnt post anywhere: This roman archer I wanted to clean up in Manga Studio 5 (havent done that yet) and an unfinished run cycle I was using to try to learn Flash. We have been using Toonboom Harmony at work so my Flash knowledge is more limited than most animators in the biz right now. I really need to remember that tutorials are my friend... lots of things to learn haha. 

Thats all! Hope you are all well.

Animation Demo Reel

Hi guys! Obviously I've been a bit busy. Here's the demo reel I made for my graduation! I plan to make a reel of only animations, and I am going to be posting layouts, life drawing, animatics, and other things over the next week or two. Enjoy!

More Animal Drawings

We had a few animals come in to life drawing class! These are pretty unfinished because they wouldn't sit still haha. There was one ferret, one small dog, and one big german shepard mix. It was a loud and crazy class. (:

December Life Drawing!!

Heres some more of my life drawing stuff! Woo!

November Life Drawing!

Here's my best work from November! Our instructor challenged us to draw our model as a basic cartoon dude for a few of our poses in class, to practice getting the personality of the pose down without getting bogged down with proper anatomy. It was interesting.

Photoshop BG

I didnt get a chance to create a video file of the animation I used this background for before my Christmas holidays! I'll have to get that up in the new year.
