Flash - Dancing. Or something.

So here is a snapshot of where I'm at with this animation, it's still a long way off.

I'll aim to have this done over the weekend, and try to keep the figure from looking too drunk :P

Flash animation - Bouncing dinosaurs.

Just in time for The Good Dinosaur!

Gyro, the final composition?

Cool!

So, here's another updated version of the concept art for Gyro, taking into full consideration the direction from Phil and Jordan.

It'd be lovely to hear some thoughts on this, I've gone a bit snowblind, so to speak.

I'll be posting the breakdown soon :)

Maya tutorial 06 - I've finished the Old Alley!

It is done!

I really enjoyed the challenge that this alley posed.

Now it is high time I started building Gyro!

Life drawing update, the fourth!

I rather enjoyed this week's life drawing session. 

Next week I'm aiming to come out of my shell a bit more and attack the page with colour! Vikki has encouraged this.

For now though, I thought about the way I could increase the dynamism in these drawings through photoshop. Here's some of that. 

Ciao. 

Gyro, post OGR composition update.

So I've got a tad more to do, but I thought I'd share my progress, as it's getting close to 12, I should be asleep.

Anyway, on reflection on the advice given on the OGR from Phil, and further advice from Jordan, I'm now trying to instill a sense of depth within my scene.

This definitely works better than my last go at things! and I know what I need to do to further improve the shot. Now I must do it!

(Fear not, the car will be dealt with! :) )

I've also made use of the colour lookup feature which Jordan demonstrated to me today. I'm quite pleased with how it can subtly affect the colours without changing them too much, in comparison with the gradient fill tool which I feel to be a tad more dramatic in it's use and parameters.

Maya Tutorial 06 - Lighting the set

Apologies for it being a bit dark.

I'll fix it in post. Or now, I have that power :P

Anyway, I'm nearly there, the home stretch! I'll have this alleyway textured tomorrow for sure! :)
