New Animations!

I'm rested up and ready to go! Everything went decently smooth after my post yesterday...the tape converted nicely (no dropped frames, time conversion issues, quality degradation), the walk down to fedex (my uncle who works at UPS is going to kill me) with my wife was fun, and I also ran into a girl in the lab that was converting her animations for the same submission....if your reading this good luck Venice! Lastly, I included links below to the animations from my reel yesterday. Ofcourse these are also located in the animation section of my site. Also, due to emails from other students studying animation, for now on all animations (except for beauty shots/film clips from the WORM/AIRMAN, etc.) will include a frame count to accent Quicktime's frame stepping feature (left/right keyboard arrows) allowing people to see where or "when" I made my decisions. Enough jibber-jabber, heres some eye candy...

Click here for ball animation.

Click here for run animation.

Click here for head turn animation.


On a lighter note, the WORM project is in full swing. Shannon finished the truck (he is a perfectionist so I am sure he will contiue to tweak things here and there all the way up till' it comes time to render the shots that include the truck). It really does look great. Roger has become a foliage factory I kid you not! Look out mother nature cuz' this man is an animal! More to come soon so keep checkin in!

Looking awesome man, seriously. I absolutely love the head turn, what was your reference?

Thanks for the props man, I'de have the truck turntable on my site by now but I haven't had time and also since you told me I'm not allowed to post anything that you own. :(

LOL! Nice. Yeah, the reference used on the head turn is undisclosed at the moment. As for the truck, to be honest when I look at the truck I dont really see a truck...in reality I see thousands of little tiny light sabors (cheesy inside joke, sorry everyone).
