Kermit got a little ahead of himself this week. I'm going to kill that frog!

Week 4 Assignment

This is the week 4 assignment for AnimationMentor. The two balls have different weights. On the left is a bowling ball, and on the right is a ping-pong ball.

Week 3 Assignments

I've finished week 3 of AnimationMentor, and time is really flying now! Above is the bouncing ball sequence that I completed as this week's animation assignment. Below is a pose that I made representing "excitement," another part of this week's assigned work.

Animation Mentor - Off and Running!

This blog has been pretty quiet for a while now, but things are picking up. Three weeks ago, I began classes with the online animation school AnimationMentor. This is a great program, and I'm really excited about how much I'm going to learn.

I can't give away too much about the program (trade secrets!), but I will be showing off some of my coursework in this blog. Hopefully, some of you will like what you see and decide to enroll.

Keep in mind that this is only my third week, so you should see a lot of improvement as I continue my studies.

Below is my first real assignment. I had to pose a 3D character to match a pose I'd sketched from real life.
The hips are a little funky, but otherwise I'm pretty proud of it.
