Animation Workshop

Advanced 2D Animation

Pre-Production

work from my preproduction class, based around the pre production phase of animation (character design, layout, storyboarding, plot, etc). my story was about keith and cody, a couple of doobers who get up to no good when they encounter a woman on the way to a furry convention.

this is Cody, the dragon warrior. his dad was a great dragon warrior (??) and his mom was a pig. their estrus combined engendered the existence of the great Cody. he loves babes and meat.

this is Keith the cat man. he is literally just a cat man. he is a bit of a slob and thinks himself quite the handsome tom. his past-times include shooting cats for sport and money and knifeplay.

layouts & environments

i'll upload the animatic when i upload the rest of my animated work. ~toodlez~

Sequential Art Fall 2010

Stuff from Sequential Art fall 2010

first assignment, we had to do a comic of our aesthetic choosing revolving around the phrase "this isn't going to work"

skipping a few assignments that did not come out well; we were to write a short, real and embarrassing story and then exchange them, then draw the received story into a two page comic. this is almost literally verbatim from my story

assignment where we were to take a fight scene from a movie and carefully lay it out into a comic. i did umm batman and robin, the scene where robin takes on the neon dudes... yeah and made it kind of dumbbb

aaaand this was my final - an adventure comic, 3 pages 20x24" featuring a character that is an amalgamation of 3 characters / people we randomly chose. (i picked james dean, bill clinton, and vincent price in case you're wondering)

Odds & Ends

A bunch of random things I have lying around on my computer in this post;

A personal sketch from freshman year,

A personal sort of fuck-around in Photoshop with layering and texture techniques our teacher taught us in a class. It's okay.

Drawings I used to draw with / for friends of 'hell' sort of demon characters. From Paint BBS / paintchat and Open Canvas 1.1 mixed.

A Paint BBS drawing from years ago of a cannibal character lamely referencing the Oingo Boingo song.

A bunch of digitally-done life drawings from a semester or two ago.

Screenprinting assignment; this is the negative, the gray would also be black but is lightened here to reflect a better simple image.

Next post maybe I'll upload my sequential art work. It is not very good, a lot of practice things... We'll see.

Erotic Drawings

Some drawings from my Erotic Drawing class this semester. They're drawings of an erotic nature.

These first ones are some recent makeup life drawings I did of Anna. Jose e-mailed everyone the night before class informing us that we had to have our 2 hours of makeup work "TOMORROW YOU HAVE HAD AMPLE WARNING <333". (and yet of course we were the only people who did this makeup work whatever)

Some drawings from a model in class.

This assignment : draw your personal fantasy. Just drafting pencil.

This assignment: an erotic drawing using line only, no tonality.

This was the first assignment we got, where we could do literally anything. Jose said this drawing was not erotic at all but I think it's pretty bromantic. Crow quill & sumi ink.

 This photo is horrible. It was a drawing based on the style of another artist - Klimt in this case. I used Stacey because she is naturally Klimt-ish minus the huge fatty tatties. Just drafting pencil.

 Another drawing that had to be based on the style of a master; this one was Schiele. Tom modeled for me obviously and I used just some charcoal and some gesso. Yaya. On brown paper.

More models from class. Mix of faber-castell shit-pens and regular drafting pencil.

 This one was ballpoint, though.

 We had to use colored pencil in a few.

They were mostly sessions between 20-60 minutes long. This is only the first semester's load of work. Yep. 'til another time, amigos.

Baltimore Book

A Visual Journalism final. I might post up some of the other sketches I scanned from that class a long time ago... but this final was to take our sketches or take new sketches we had accumulated and craft a book with it. We could self-publish thru Lulu, xerox it, or do whatever we wanted to create a book representative of the sketches within or that presented them in a good way.

Sooo in high school I learned how to do a basic book binding, and I used that technique to put together a simple little cardboard book. The covers were brown and I painted and inked over them. It's about 5"wx8" tall.

Yeah... reeeally simple. I had decided about that time that I REALLY loved comics and I wanted to DO comics, so I made this final sort of sequentially-oriented. We didn't have to do anything like this, and it was a big baby overachieving lame leap, but I got super into this and tried to create a loose narrative atmosphere with my sketches.

The layouts aren't really crooked, it's just odd to scan in a book of this size...

I did pencil sketched layouts for the pages, sketched in new backgrounds and contexts, took some new observations, and then I went over it with some ink, white marker & tombo pens. There are 20 pages in total, but I'll have to scan the rest at a later date because scanning this little book is time-consuming and horrifically inconvenient.

'til a later date, duders
