Recent Sketchbook pages...

Some pages from my sketchbook, I felt guilty that I had no animation to show... I draw to chill out in the evenings, it's one of my favourite past times. Even if they do turn out a little....iffy.

These are taken direct from my sketchbook... they are a bit of a jumble.


A week of excuses...

Right, this week, after promising myself I would have a great and productive week... sort of went to pot. Due to lots of different reasons, none of which are really excusable, I have only completed one day of work. One!! In a whole week. Sort of dissapointed in myself really. There may be many hours in a day but boy do they go fast!
Anyway, back in the rhythm tomorrow and in uni doing some animation. I have one to show from tuesday but it's still at uni so I'll post tomorrow.
Back on the horse people!!!!

Challenge

Myself and Niomi have set ourselves a challenge (with help from John ofcourse). Seeing as we are animation students we felt like animating. But with a purpose its more fun.

So each day a new word is given from a random word generator which we use to animate. At the end of the day we have to swap our last frames over which we then use to start the next day with. At the end two overlapping films will be made. It's an infinate project and has already proved to be alot of fun.

Our first word was Garbage (given to us by Mary)


It took a while to get back into the swing of animating. The thing I struggled most with during doing this one was having something not move or pause for long enough. But I perseveared and I'm happy with how this turned out.

Today's word was Rapid. I had to start with Niomi's last frame and vis versa, so yeah:



Really happy with this one, alot of fun to do!!!

8:30

Thats my hour earlier, I did try for 8 but my body said no. Will try again tomorrow.

But this what I've done this morning,


Now off to animate. Our word is Rapid.

Penny and Alf

Inspiration

I was on the web, as usual. And I stumbled on this lady. She has a fantastic blog, mostly due to how much life and love she puts into her drawing. I want to put more into my work, and this is a good start.
