4th Year Film!

My film's online now guys!

My film

Here's my 1st year film.  

1st Year/ Freshman Film

here's to doing better next time

Some old stuff

Old Character designs I found on my hard drive, animation test I did during winterbreak, and photoshop painting practice.

Fran Krause

Just a quick flash animation I did in digital methods.  First time using Flash and I gotta admit it was pretty fun.  I animated Fran Krause punching out a cowboy. 

Quick disclaimer, I wasn't really trying to do things right so don't bash me for the animation flaws.  It was just a test lol.

:/

yes, so it's been a month or so at CalArts now! And all I gotta say is that there's a disgusting amount of talent here.

Lots of work and lots of procrastinating makes a very bad combo I must admit.

anyways, not having a laptop makes going online quite difficult. Which might actually be a good thing since I'd probably be even worse off if I had easy access to the internet. I've decided to try and post somewhat regularly here. Even if I don't like my work. Maybe showing it more will make me care about my assignments more haha. Sounds like a really dumb thing since people would apparently kill to be where I am but it's hard to care about some of these intro assignments.

but yesh, don't expect glorious art from me. Go to the other CA students haha. They're amazing. Makes me wonder how I'm here.

but enough self wallowing. Be back soon. I'll upload some stuff from last week or something.

Here to fill up some space is a little doodle of my CG Animation teacher Lee Gramling :)

CalArts schedule

so... yep. I'm pretty much excited just to be going. even more excited for the studio classes. Not too thrilled about having to take critical studies. I got some transfer credit but only enough to cover about half of the units required for graduation. Not saying I plan on staying all 4 years *Cough*ifigetanawesomejob*cough*. What irritates me is that my calculus credits didn't transfer which means... i'm gonna have to take math. and that seriously pisses me off. I thought I got rid of that garbage in high school.
