Mr. Hyde

I don't normally make smaller posts like this but I felt like updating my blog. I had an idea for the up coming Push Pull Assignment involving Dr. Jeckyll aka Mr. Hyde. This is me just playing around with a possible design...

Environments

Well, I promised a few people I'd post my CDA work. So I did. These are most of the quick environments I've had to do for my Environment design class. I'll post the stuff from my other classes as soon as I get a chance. This is ordered from recent to oldest.

Turtles

Just messing around with shapes...

Layout

I needed some more perspective examples for my portfolio for Concept Design Academy so I did a quick layout. This is inspired by an idea from concept last semester involving a botanist.

Four Days, Four Characters

I guess an update is in order. Second year at Ringling is over! I can't believe my peers and I are all going to be juniors come fall! Soon we will be working on our thesis's (thesi?) heh. Anyway, after spending a long time and a lot of worrying about what I'm going to do this summer it turns out I'll be going to Concept Design Academy for a ten week training program in character design, environment design, and another class in props and environments. I really do enjoy the pre-production side of animation so this will be a good chance for me to learn and improve my skills in design. I'm really excited for this opportunity!

In related news I have to put together a portfolio for two of my classes. The first step for me was to do four semi-realistic character designs. It was a good change of pace doing more realistic characters then I normally do. I do miss the opportunity to exaggerate proportions however. Here are my characters for portfolio.

Paintings

A few digital paintings I've done recently. The top one is from D.P.S.C. with a few additions to make it more presentable for possible portfolio. The bottom one is just a quick sketch from a while back.

Final Animatic Concept 1

This is my final Animatic plus all the design work and layout I did for the project. I want to do more exploring on my next projects.
