Re-layout...!

Thanks for all your feedback last week! Here's a new version of a layout, and some key "golden poses". I also cut the "I feel awwwweeesome"...

All comments welcome! :)

Slowly starting another shot.

Here is a first rough first pass of a blocking for my new dialog shot. I haven't figured out how I am going to do the last shot that is a view from the phone-camera. I'll probably just key it by hand at the very end once all the rest is done. No facial yet, as you can see... And no background...

All comments welcome!

"This device"

I started to plan a new dialog sequence! I found a clip I felt pretty entertaining. It's a clip from "40 Year Old Virgin"

Here are some thumbnails for the dialog sequence. I separated it in three shots. First shot is sort of an establishing shot with a clerk coming in and stealing a phone from the hands of a customer. Second shot is a 3/4 view favoring the clerk fiddling with the phone. Third shot, reverse view, 3/4 view favoring the customer. The clerk starts to film himself with the phone. The last shot is basically a view from the camera on the phone.

All comments welcome!
Thanks

Life drawing!

Boy did I feel rusty! But it was fun! There was a Halloween-cabaret theme to the session. The models were disguised as "dead dolls" (which would have been easier to see had I drawn the face with the funky make up on their faces!). I have a tendency to draw heads, hands and feet too big... gotta watch that next time! The first 2 sketches were done in 20 mins, the 3rd one in 10 mins and the last one in 5 mins...

Audio clip research...continued!

Hello!

I decided to continue my audio clip a little more. Thanks for all the great feedback from before! I felt like I needed to find clips with a little more punch... a little more twist ... I personally really like 6 and 3. I love the change of situation in 6. It's loud, but I love that kind of sarcasm... I find there is something similarly interesting in 3... the exaggeration in the delivery of the line... They are a bit long, but the sound quality seems good... plus, we are all here to have fun aren't we? :)

Thanks for all the feedback!

dialog clip research

It's been a few weeks now since I finished AM. I have been looking around for some dialog clips to start a new animation test. Here are a few of my favorites... let me know which one you prefer, which one you would like to see animated!

Thanks
