"Who I Am" - My BFA Intro Video

 Our first project for BFA was to create a video introducing ourselves, the rules being that:

1. We must look at the camera and say “My name is _____” and

2. Must be 1 minute long at maximum. I managed to complete this in under a week.

Animated in Photoshop and compiled using Flash and Premiere. It was pretty fun re-exploring my childhood influences and examining how I got to where I am today.

All the animation tests I did from my Ani114 class last semester. It was loads of fun and I learned a lot!

And here's the final sack pantomime animation.

Figure draws

Still figuring out blogspot's image formatting, so bear with me. 

Stuff from previous classes. I miss charcoal. It's messy, but so worth it.

More happy memories...

This is the reel I included for my mid-program portfolio review. (I passed.) I was just getting into 3D back then, and needless to say I enjoyed it! The rig used here is the Eleven rig from the 11 Second Club.

"The Mime"

I made this short called "The Mime" once upon a time when I was a tiny freshman. It's nice to see how far I've come since then!
