Hey Everyone,
I'm going to make this a work in progress blog again. So, first off, My mentor is Melanie Cordan and she is..... AWESOME! I feel very fortunate to have a mentor that has a wide variety of experience. Also, she has to be one of the most enthusiastic mentor's I've had at AM and it's terrific. Her energy is threw the roof and it really feels like she want's to push our stuff to the next level. So Excited!
Second, Here is my planning for my first assignment, "It's ALIVE!" The whole point of this exercise is to develop two distinctive emotional beats in a shot. Also, keep it simple and focus on the acting. I had gone threw a range of idea's and came up with these two. After a lot of help from my mentors and my peers I decided to go with the first idea on the video. I felt it had the best contrast in emotions and it would allow me to play with subtle animation, something I haven't explored yet.
Next week, Blocking!

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.

Talk to you in a few weeks!

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!

Strength thumbnails
Hey,
Just a quick post of thumbnails. This was one of my last pages and I think I found the appropriate silhouette(the circled drawing in the bottom right corner). I needed to tweak a few things. Any feedback is appreciated. Also, I have decided to for go this months 11 Seconded Club challenge and start fresh with next months. I felt that 8 days wasn't enough time. I should have my final pose by the end of the week or the beginning of next week. Talk to you soon.

Excitement!
Hey guys,
One of the first things I'm doing for this blog is a pose test. The pose is excitement. Something to warm me up, help me with my silhouettes and help my over all animation progression. These are just simple thumbnails and the four with the dots are the ones I most favor. Any feedback would be great. I will hopefully post something up in the next couple of days. Talk to you soon!
