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 character rotation of my caricature.

A screen shot of my character from the animation.

More of my process and images after the jump.

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.

Illustration Friday - Mail

I drew this for the Illustration Friday topic, mail.

This is a drawing of Delibird, a character from the Pokémon video game franchise. I thought of this because Delibird keeps food and items in it's sack like tail and delivers them to people.
Plus it's holiday time and this character is obviously based on a penguin and Santa Claus.

This was also draw in my 2011 Sketchbook Project Tour sketchbook.

Egg Comic + Storyboard + Animatic

A project for Storyboarding class. The goal was to create a comic based on an egg and create a storyboard from it. Then take the storyboard and make it into an animatic.
My idea reminded me of the first Alien movie.




Just made this animatic with voices I recorded, sound effects and a deadmau5 song.

Illustration Friday - Double

I drew this for the Illustration Friday topic, double.

First thing I thought of was a double helix, for DNA. Then I decided to draw the Pokémon video game character that has a reference to Deoxyribonucleic acid in it's name, as well as the way it's arms are, Deoxys. I just coloured in a pencil sketch of the character.

Deadmau5

I drew Joel Zimmerman, a.k.a. Deadmau5, a music producer. His skin is removed to reveal a skull.
I also made an outline of his mouse head mask that he wears.
I'm going to go see Deadmau5 on June 30/July 1, clearly I'm really excited.

Anthony

Anthony asked me to draw him something.

Illustration Friday - Ahead

Ahead
I drew this for the Illustration Friday topic, ahead.

This illustration is based off some lyrics of some Nine Inch Nails songs, "Ringfinger" and "Twist". "Twist" was the early version of "Ringfinger" so they do have some similar lyrics.
I thought of ahead while listening to the song "Twist", where it says "go ahead and cut me". This lead to me listening to "Ringfinger" and coming up with this illustration. Both songs contain the lyric "working my hands until they bleed", while "Ringfinger" contains the lyrics "ringfinger"and "sever flesh and bone". I think with these select portions of the songs you can see how I came up with this illustration.

Visual Interpretation - Montage

A montage drawing based on the lyrics to the Crystal Castles song "Mother Knows Best".

For my montage I chose to do it based off of lyrics to a song called Mother Knows Best by Crystal Castles. The song brought violent, abusive, offensive images to mind. I find that kind of stuff interesting to draw. When I hear, or read the lyrics to the song I see that it mentions sex, herpes, abuse and murder a lot.

The blood and bruises are the most vibrant because they the most prominent to me in the song. There is a bruised and bleeding vagina at the top because the song mentions beating, herpes, cunt and sickness inside, so I thought this would help represent those portions. I made knives stabbing and cutting the spread legs, as the song mentions “I stab her with my hunting knife”. Finally, there is a female with a bruised and bleeding face, once again referring to the abuse. The blood is meant to tie all the images together.
