2 unrelated line ups of space/alien characters.

sketches!

A random sketch of Thing carrying an elephant and some female knight sketches!

3rd year film

I've kept forgetting to put this up but I guess some friends and family wanted to see what I did last year so here it is.  My 3rd year Calarts student film.  It's one of those things that worked a lot better when pitched.  Like always it's a bit embarrassing to look at but I guess it just makes me want to do better next time.  In the end if one person enjoyed it I guess it wasn't a waste of my time. 

In the mean time I'm gonna work so that I have material to bury this post with later.

some little soccer doodles I did because it's a slow day at work!

some sketches while watching Boardwalk Empire.

weeee!

wheeee!

2nd gif!  and 2nd time using Flash!

I don't like that program!

stuff dump!

yesterday I forgot my headphones for work.

So instead of killing my off time watching youtube videos I drew random images.

Here's a couple.

^this one was actually done just now.  It's my first ever gif!  And also the first time I used photoshop to animate.  It was a little tricky!

squirrel romeo and juliet.

that hits the spot

I'm still alive guys.  

I've been neglecting my blogger site for a bit but I'll have more posts soon!

I just got photoshop and all that on my new computer so now I can finally work at home!

Let the ideas begin!

now with films done I’m gonna upload more stuff/doodles.  I think pretty soon I’ll also start developing some concept work for a short or two I’ll try to be doing this summer!  I’m thinking about seeing if I can get a group of people together to make a more polished film or concept trailer!  I think it’d be a cool thing to try to do since this is basically gonna be my last summer before I need to find a real job.

medieval-y

I've been watching Game of Thrones, The Tudors, and Vikings.

It's making me want to draw lots and lots of knights and barbarians.

but I'm concerned these little sketches mean I'm not spending enough time with my film. 

Back to work!!!!

another doodle

Some doodles to keep this blog alive!

Films are almost due guys!!!

Some notes

Here are some quick notes I gave to a friend about how I handle gesture drawing in general.

They're not much and the drawings aren't the greatest since I'm focused on other things but I thought I'd share in case anybody out there finds this useful.

here's the general progression of how I began gesture drawings.

starting from when I just drew what I saw to getting more into story sketching.

Design was discussed a little bit but I didn't get into it too much since I don't think I'm the person to be talking to about that just yet.

you might need to open the image in a tab and zoom in if you're using blogger's lightbox.

And then a couple quick sketches to illustrate giving a character some context in gestures through backgrounds. 

anyways, hope that helps somebody out there in the world.  If not I'll just see myself out...
