Rindin The Puffer

This is the short I worked on while interning at FatCat Animation Studios 6 years ago. I worked in the Ink & Paint Department and it was a great learning experience.

Acting Reference #64

Nice clip from The Disappearance of Alice Creed. Great movie, definitely recommend checking it out. A lot of nice, subtle, nervous ticks going on from Danny (character wearing the track suit)

Animation Pinterest

I created an Animation Pinterest page, where I "pin" awesome demo reels, cool shorts, sweet shots, anything that inspires me. Figured I would share it with other people :) I find having a one stop page like this is great for when you need to recharge those animation batteries*




* If you are actually running on batteries, then you are a robot, sorry to break the news to you.

Anim: Blow A Hole!

Animation I created using the sweet Cenk rig that came with How To Cheat In Maya 2013

WARNING SPOILERS!!!!


I wanted to start with that, if you haven't seen Moon, do not watch this clip!! If you have seen it congratulations..you are awesome! This is a great clip with Sam Rockwell (amazing in this movie). It just has a lot of emotion and character in it & I love the little weight shifts/movements at the beginning..enjoy
   

2012 Sizzle Reel

I decided to make a sizzle reel for fun. I just wanted to make something that showcased a lot of work.

Acting Reference #62

Here's a nice clip from The Pursuit of Happyness. Just has a lot of emotion in it and I love the mouth movements that Will Smith makes while he tries to hold back his emotions

Anim: Mans Best Friend #3

Another update...polish pass
   

Anim: Mans Best Friend #2

Here's an update. Currently "in progress" just put in rough lip sync. Finding the rig doesn't have very good facial controls..so I'm having to fight it a lot
