3 Second Assignment 1

Here's my 3 second clip! Note: I only just started animating the hair, so that's still a little stiff with no overlap. Thanks!

Benoit - Assignment 01

Hi guys!
Here is my 3 sec shot for this week.

Jackie- 3 second clip (please play with audio turned down)

Hi guys, here's my 3 second clip; I always wanted to animate someone in concert, so I took this audio of Nick Cave at Coachella and gave it a spin- I liked the scariness to it. This rig has problems, i.e. face/ arms aren't set up right, so I'm calling it a day and moving on. Thanks for looking!

Dana - Week 1 Assignment

Hey everyone, here's my attempt at the week 1 assignment. The first upload was really low res so I've linked to a dropbox posting instead. Thanks!

Jackie- audio clip for this term?

Hi guys, here's my audio clip I want to use for this class. I always like to do a romance theme : P Anyway, this is a bit long (14 secs) so I was thinking of cutting it before or after the first "he doesn't do it for you?" I'm not sure. I'm thinking they can be fishing in the early morning, because there are crickets in the background so it's nighttime and they're outside. I want to recycle my iAnimate girl and monster rigs, but I could come up with something else if need be. Cool, please let me know your thoughts! p.s. thanks to Kevin for getting me out of the dark about contributing to this blog!

No class on Thursday, April 18th

It's official.  We'll reschedule an additional class at the end of this term (not on July 4th, of course).  See you all in 10 days!

Class on April 18: Sub or Skip?

I propose we skip the class next Thursday and make it up later, rather than have a substitute (not that Royce isn't great).  I think this would be better for our continuity of feedback.  What do you guys think?  Comment below, or just email me.

Welcome to Spring 2013 Session!

Hi Class, it was great to meet you all last night!  I've put together this blog where you guys can share your work between classes. I think it would be great if you reviewed each other's work, and I may periodically visit to give notes, too!  I will also use this space for announcements and reminders.  Please start by posting your progress reels if you can!

As a test video post, here is a link to the animation that got me in the door at Pixar:
