Do it stop motion for me, stop motion for me~

This was an assignment where we had to do a 30sec spot for our favorite toy~

I did this all by myself with a nikon d60 I borrowed from my school
...it was about 200-250 photos
edited and masked in photoshop
composited in after effects

Sooooo, since I love LEGOS I created a stop motion with them!!
ENJOY (:

(I know it's a bit dark)

Fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa...Psycho Killa!

Talking Heads!

Meet my friend Euna, aka Bearbot (she's a dj and fellow comp. artist)
I decided to model her for practice because my final for my Comp. Animation class is to also model and animate a head, my own head.

Here's my model of her from those photos~ I think it looks like her!



Then I made her say the intro to I Like Big Butts by Six Mixalot, lol.
This is my first, rushed playblast with another head animation I did previously... 
I'll post a follow-up video of a better one I'm already working on SOON!!





Oh and here's a snapshot of a dragon I'm modeling for practice as well...working on the wing right now~

S&H mess-around~

Sooo, I modeled this sloth not too long ago and meant to give it fur...


...these are my first attempts at using Shave and a Haircut (Joe Alters), let alone FUR gasp

Day 1:
Played with presets, got familiar with tools, fully "furred" him-
I call him RASTA-sloth


Day 2:
Got to know the brush, attenuate, and comb tools a little more, gave him a more polished look and added some variations/layers of color and fur~




The second day I actually re-did all the fur, because the first day I just selected him as a whole and applied hair. This made him harder to groom where the hairs overlapped like his armpit and neck-- so on my second try I applied the hair in sections by selecting faces and it turned out to be better and more efficient in taming his hurrr (hair). haha yay for trouble solving!


He's still not done!! But so far, he ain't too shabby righ? I'm having lotsa fun with this plug-in. (:
