iAnimate Anniversary FlashBack

So I was listening to a podcast yesterday and they mentioned that its the third anniversary of iAnimate.  Hard to believe I've been at this so long.  Specially for the anniversary, here's a flashback:

My Sept 2010 reel submission to iAnimation to get into the workshops:



My first iAnimate progress reel (I used really bad music) :


I've come a long ways but I still have a long ways to go!

Hands blocking



My current project.  Felt this needed to be done in stepped mode.  I don't know the last time I did anything in stepped.  I'm enjoying this.  Its really different than what I normally do.

First Painting

This is how my first painting ended up.  Since its my first, I'm fairly happy with it.  I think I needed to get this out of the way.  I learned so much doing this.  Hopefully the next will turn out better :)

First Still Life Painting


Since I've been posting my in progress works and stuff on here, thought I might as well post the progress of my first painting.  I'm taking a continuing education class for painting through the New York Academy of Art.  I'm liking it a lot.  I have a lot to learn though!  It was pointed out to me to move the light over a bit so thatits not on the edge to keep the painting from looking too flat.  I might try that next class, or just move on.  I have three hours left to finish it.

Cat week 3



Finishing up the cat.  Probably just a little more to do before I call it done.

Cat - cleaning

So I worked on cleaning my cat jumping animation this last week.  The week was crazy with getting a new CEO at work and everything so I didn't get everything done that I would have liked.  Half the tail is still in blocking and I haven't gotten to adding those tiny feet movements like JD was talking about, so that will be this week.  I'm going to try to get back into this tonight.

Cat Jump Rough Blocking

So I actually changed my mind and decided to start something new.  Haven't ever done much with an animal, so I thought this test would be fun.  I actually did enjoy blocking it out.  Now I have to go through and clean it and get rid of the pops.  I included the review I got from JD at the bottom.
