Man in the Woods Test







It's pretty short, but I blame that on the stupid cat that jumped on set. I'm pretty happy with the model and how the animation was going. Ah well...!

Finally got the curves of flesh on his left shoulder sorted, hopefully the rest of his body won't cause me so many problems as this bit!




His head will be filled with dead flies, I have started a collection and any contributions are more than welcome...


Arm/shoulder joint fixed, it is looking much better now, elbow seems a little wide, but I'll sort that out later.


Man with flies in his head...





This is the man who will have flies in his head. Doesn't look like much in this picture but it gets better.

Recent animation



Did this last month. Was a bit rushed, don't know how I feel about it. The words are from a poem written for me by a friend. All the text is hand sewn, green screened fabric rollings, with cut out text and bits of space debris animated over a lightbox. It was all put together on Photoshop and Windows Movie Maker.




This was the introduction to my showreel for the Royal College - it's a shame these videos are all a bit pixelly as it makes it impossible to read the text (it says "hello and welcome...to my show-reel"). Anyway...apologies for the camera shake!




Insect Legs, hand drawn on tracing paper, scanned in, and edited on Photoshop. Animated with Windows Movie Maker. Pain! Not finished yet.




A challenge to myself to create something in 2 hours using found objects. I was quite happy with it!

Character designs




 

Incident at the Window Models, to accompany the animation below (unfortunately I ran out of time and never had the chance to film these guys. What a shame...)

Some stuff to get me started...


Did this a while ago, just a doodle with a biro. I like it. Might get round to sculpting it someday...
