Improv Comedy Show - Episode 1

For the past few weeks I have been involved in an independent improv comedy and animation project. The first episode of this project was just completed recently, you can see it RIGHT HERE!

I created every single piece of art and animated sequence in the 17 minute long video. The first portion, the animated graphic intro was created with Photoshop. I animated the images inside of Premiere using the different Photoshop layers. The happy face portion was also created in the same way, I really like the exaggerated expressions done with that character. The animated potion at the very end of the video was created with Flash and Premiere. This was the first time I had used Flash since CS3. My first time using the Bone tool as well. It's not the best I can do, but I hope to learn more with flash soon.

You can see some of the animated portions independently after the jump. As well as an animation demo I created in 3D Studio Max and rough character sketches.

Animi2 Music Video

A music video I created for the song "Animi2" by Rebeka Haak. This was a colaboration project between music and animation students. I created this with Photoshop, Premiere, and 3D Studio Max.

Character head rotations are after the jump.

Newest Demo reel and other 3D works.

Demo Reel completed in April 2012. 3D Rocket model I made in 3D Studio Max. From February 2012. 3D Seahorse Staff I made in 3D Studio Max. From March 2012.

Teddie

Fan art of Teddie from Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4. I used 3D Studio Max to create this. I then brought it to Mudbox to paint and model. Then brought it back to 3DS to rig, skin, and animate.

Original Teddie artwork, by Shigenori Soejima.

Robot Squid Character

A project for school. Tasked with designing a robot character and creating a 3D model from the design drawings. So this first image is the squid robot that I designed. I drew it in a dark underwater ocean setting. I really like how this turned out, one of the best things I've drawn.

Also my nickname at work is Squid.

This is available in my store as a print, Mobile phone skin/case and more!

Rotation drawings of my robot.

3D model Rotation, didn't have enough time to get it quite the way I wanted.

Came up with the whole squid idea by drawing large black blotches. I refined that and came up with this silhouette to base my coloured design off of. This silhouette struck me as very interesting.

Gekko Moriah Bust

I created a bust of Gekko Moriah, from One Piece, using the default human head in Mudbox.

There are some close up stills after the jump.

Jack O Lantern Model

A 3D Jack O Lantern model that I made for a school assignment. I used 3D Studio Max, Mudbox and Photoshop to create this.

Wire frame view after the jump.

Caricature Animation

An animation assignment for school. We had to create a 15 second intro animation using a caricature of ourselves. My caricature is based on a design I had previously created.

The animated series Adventure Time inspired me to create the character with long noodle like appendages. And like that series I wanted this to be pretty random and nonsensical.

Last thing I added was the blood in the blender and that just made the entire thing perfect to me.

A screen shot of my character from the animation.

More of my process and images after the jump.

Burger Time Arcade Cabinet

First Project in my 3D construction class this semester. I was excited to work on this project and finished the framing on the cabinet pretty early. Click on the image for the best view. This is a video of the cabinet, with an army of sausage enemies.

School's Done N Stuff

School is over, so here is a bunch of stuff I made. Mostly from the end of the semester.

My Demo Reel. All the 3D stuff, the black and white 8 ball and robot, Orihime, the Melon, the speaker character, my PSA and the Earth exploding were done this semester. Everything else is older.

A speed painting. Had to have a focal point.

Final painting for school, just had to be any character with a background. I had an old drawing of this mouse on my computer so I coloured it in.

A fairy tale character I had to create, it's a speaker monster.

The speaker monster coloured, the walking animation is in my Demo Reel above.

Snowman Rage

I'm learning 3D modeling now and this is my first model. Made in 3D Studio Max, be nice!
