Rendering

Stuck in the labs rendering at the last minute, my own chuffin' fault. Bring me luck Maya. <3

Bird Model

I Have not posted on here for a while so i figured it was time for a few updates.

This is the bird model's earliest screenshot. Still need to texture the eyes and work on the parachute a little, also the IK system doesn't quite fluently work for the wings.

9 hours in the lab today

began modelling the character that will be used in my 3D character animation today... Maya crashed a whole of 8 times. several times i hadn't saved in a while, all in all, quite a success.. bright and early tomorrow.

Autodesk's Free Product Library for Students

If your a student and don't already know, Autodesk offers free versions of almost all it's software to students studying in the UK.

Really helpful and saves us all torrenting the shit out of Maya.

If i can recommend one person to everyone who visits this page it would be this guy.

Nico Di Mattia.

I first discovered Nico a few years ago as I became engrossed in the art of digital painting. What better way to really allow this medium to entice me was by watching people do it. Speed painting is generally a video showing a time-lapse from the start to finish of painting. I couldn't believe my eyes as photo realistic results were born in front of me.

I have followed Nico for a long time and even purchased his Art Book which I treasure in the second drawer of my bed side table. ;)

Paynee's Blog: Mass Defect

A wacky yet extremely creative nutter from work linked me this. After opening it I thought ahh, another one of Dane's game related videos.

Upon further inspection and a few good laughs I began to look past its intentional meaning and begun breaking it down. Although extremely basic and highly over-exaggerated the fan made short boasts some extremely key strengths in it's animation. I soon realised what I was watching was merely a video storyboard, keying out some outrageous but simultaneously well crafted stunts.

FLASH

I don't think i can describe in words how much i hate Adobe Flash. This ongoing hatred towards such a meaningless program has been going on for years... I vow today, to never purposely OPEN the Program Adobe FLASH ever, again.

VIDEO CO-PILOT

I've been studying Andrew Kramer for some time, and his tutorials are extremely useful... can't wait to incorporate into my Video Production module.

Google Calender for 3D Character anim.

It's probs going to take me a week to finish the rest of this google calender.

3d Advanced Character Animation

Currently sat doing work at uni, that i did in the second year of my BTEC course. Not complaining i guess i just have a head start. Really couldnt see myself writing a bouncing ball document three times though.
