Dreamcrits!

I was lucky enough to attend Dreamcrits this past week, featuring Jason Scheier (http://d3capmode.blogspot.com/). 
I filled up 4 pages of notes in the relatively short critique, and learned a ton. Each critique was so packed with information I could hardly keep up.
Here's some goofy doodles I did while we waited for the critique to begin...

City Of the Beasts Reel


Forgot to upload this...
This was the final reel I created for my group, for the City of the Beasts project.
Did the title in After Effects and the rest was done in Premiere.

Adobe Ebook

For our latest project in BFA, we worked in groups for a competition to create an ebook for the story, "The Husband Who Was to Mind the House."
I did storyboards, layouts, line drawings, values, characters, rigs, animating, and actionscripting.

Here is the first page, used for a poster. The characters are poseable.

This being my first time using Flash, I had to learn how to make characters animatable. Knowing more now, I probably would have done some things differently, but it was a fun trying to improvise and figure things out.
A simple guide I made for my group.




A few of the layouts I did, with values.
