Another chance for a draw…

single, double…or the whole bottle?

This is my submission for the 11 Second Club March competition. I’ve worked mostly using flash for the last 10 years and just recently self-taught myself Maya. I’m quite happy with the results, nice strong poses and smooth animation. Please vote for me at http://www.11secondclub.com/competitions/march12 (voting runs up to 5th March 2012).

Thanks to Escape Studios, London for the rig.

I had a chance to do some life drawing yesterday…

Done with Maya, timed out with videos of myself and adjusting the timing to give it a more comical look. Quite a technical challenge of climbing on to a box working out where feet and arms should go, where the weight should be and then made it in to a loop. ready for the next one!

I’ve just made some psychedelic bear animations for the Gateful dead game trailer, visit the site here http://gratefuldeadgame.com/
