On to the Next..

Just finished this Master Copy of the cartoony pitcher in the Preston Blair Animation Book.  Under 100 frames not too over whelming but got me out of my funk.  Alot of work but I feel my chops kicking in as I do alot.  Excited to look for excersise to do, but I will still wrap up the "Ski Dazzle "Backgrounds so I can animate it already.  Following is :

With Breakdowns..


The Polished.. "Finished Product"

Sam's Speech

I sure do dig this scene, it totally motivates me to keep on pushing the craft.  Kinda hitting a plateau, with getting fit been away riding BMX more than animating.  Trying to find that happy median, It wont be long.  Push on!

Cool find

Back to Grind..

Yes! the 100's trick continues, building up momentum again.  A Mastercopy from Preston Blair's Animation Book. Key's as best I could from feeling and how it looked. Also noticed he had key #'s there so I copied it, and now the fun part, to figure out the cartoony breakdowns, favors, and snap.

Wow! another fun project wrapped.  Honing the character animation craft while adding to it the film and production skill progression little by little.  Also added an early animatic from idea to finished product.
