HARDKOUR PARKOUR!

Hey Guys,

Here is my next assignment for Class 2. I went with a Parkour test. (no arms) It was a challenge and I would change a few things but overall it gets the point across. If something looks familiar, it would be the glasses from the last test. It will all make sense when you see my final assignment for Class 2, which will be up in the next few weeks. Enjoy.

One HUGE Post!

Hey Guys!

It's been awhile. Work has sucked the life out of me for a good month. Now that it's starting to slow down I'm back in action. I started Class Two about a month ago with my newest professor, Steve Cady. He is a really awesome teacher. He's worked at many companies from from small video game studios to huge feature Houses. It's been a blast so far.

Also, this is my latest test: the Side Step. Since I haven't had time to upload my assignment periodically, I'm going to unload it all in one chunk. From Sketches to final. I hope you guys enjoy it.

There it is. Like I said... HUGE! This was really fun. Anyway, I will have my next test up fairly soon since I'm already in the blocking phase. It's a fun one. Talk to you soon!

This is the End ... of Class 1, my Friends

Hey Everybody!

This is it. All my hard work in a one minute and five second clip. I think it turned out pretty good. There are a few things that you haven't seen yet. The personality walk: Stealth. And my balance pose. If the walk turned out dark on your monitor, I apologize for the inconvenience. It looks good on my quicktime video file, but when I uploaded it to the internet... it sucked all the light out of it... BOO! I hope you guys can see it.

Anyway, it's my time to say good bye to Class 1. I gotta say thank you to Aaron, my Professor, for being an amazing teacher and pushing my work to the next level.

Time for a nice week off! Enjoy the reel!

Oh so Tired... and Stealthy...

Oh man, what an exhausting week... Perfect segway to my Pose... Exhaustion. It was perfect timing... or not so perfect timing. Work is loading up like crazy and class 1 is wrapping up. The pressure is on! Anyway, here is my exhaustion pose, nothing more to say.



Next week, my personality walk and a balancing act. Talk to you soon.

Vanilla Walk and Concern

Hey Guys,

Week 9 all done! This week was a nice challenge, but not as hard as I thought. I successfully animated a standard or "Vanilla" walk. Aaron seemed to like it, not much critique, which is a good sign. Also, this weeks pose, Concern. This one was more challenging, but since I did so well with the story telling on my physical strength pose, I figure I would continue with it. I hope you guys enjoy. Next, adding some personality to my step and an exhausting week.
