Animation - Yzma Baseball Bat

And here is the final exercise I got around to cleaning up for Studio Technique! Yzma is at the bat, wearing her very lovely swamp outfit from the movie.

Had heaps of fun this term with Studio Technique! Hopefully next summer I will be able to take more classes with Samantha!

And as always, my favorite stills:

Animation - Yzma Baseball Pitch

Here is yet another Animation 3 Studio Technique exercise. This time I picked Yzma's low cut - long flowing dress. Very sexy. The task was to animate a baseball pitch. I had lots of fun with this outfit!

This was my second exercise out of the 4 - you can tell that in the Weight Lift and Walk Sit I was starting to get to know Yzma better.

Here it is! Good old fashioned pencil on paper animation:

And as per usual - my favorite stills:

Had fun with a pretty crazy stretch pose! :)

Animation - Yzma Weight Lift

Another Studio Technique Animation 3 exercise for Samantha Youssef. This time Yzma is in her "Secret Lab" outfit, lifting a giant beaker. More pencil on paper fun!

Enjoy!

Here is a link to Yzma Walk Sit if you haven't seen that one!:

And again! Favorite Stills:

Animation - Yzma Walk Sit

So I'm cleaning up and finishing all my animations from my Studio Technique Animation 3 course that I took with Samantha Youssef this summer! :) I chose to pick one Disney character - and stick with her through all my exercises. I chose Yzma. Because she's awesome.

I'm working backwards, so this is the last and most complex exercise. We had to chose a character that walks in with a chair, puts it down, then sits.

All done on paper with pencil.

Voila! More Studio Technique exercises to come!

And some stills!

Polish Father's Day!

Today is Polish Father's day! So I drew this card (my sister composed the text) for my Dad!

Needless to say, my Dad is a huge World Cup fan - an interest we have in common.

The card basically says - RELAX more! Advice that my Dad, crazy environmentalist who must fight to save the world, needs!

Love him lots! Best Dad ever!

Animation Banshee Loop

Well, instead of doing everything I should be doing, instead I spent the entire day (went by so quick) animating this fun looped animation of my Banshee character. I want to turn this into an animated short one day! :) When I have time...

Animated as always in Flash. The background is Secret of Kells/Samurai Jack inspired!

Some stills:

Character Design - Banshee - Expression Sheet

Wow it's been a while since I posted! I've been working hard on some animation exercises on paper, that are not done yet, so there was not much to post.

I'm working on a new character design which I doodled while I thought of my Witcher character. In one of the stories, the Witcher meets a Banshee, hiding out in the form of a very pretty dark-haired girl, with pale skin. So I decided to design that character.

I really want to animate her!

Here she is!

And here are the first rough sketchbook doodles done in marker which contributed to her creation:
