Self Branding

Part of our work this year is aimed at how employable we are - and how we can improve this...

So I have come up with a brand name that I believe is not already in existence -

"Cactustrophic productions"...

The only reason for this is so I can put "A Cactustrophic production" at the start of every animation I make in the future...

So I started work on the logo - so far this is what I think I'm going to go with...

Perhaps I need some shading on the plant pot - I'll re-post it then...

Until then...

Cheers :)

A friendly gesture

So Ava the ghost passes builders sharing tea in the story - it's a point where everyone seems to have a friend but her so as nice a gesture it is it'll be a sad thing for poor little Ava

The little girl and boy shape ideas

Again I need little boys and girls for the animation and I'm working on this kind of shape at the minute - I'm having real issues drawing even just in pencil, my lines won't go where I want them to but I'm fairly happy with where these little things are going so give it time and I may have final characters ready to animate soon  :D

A generic baby character idea for my animation

So part of my story involves the little ghost girl floating past children playing and there will be little, little kids in this so this is the outline of my idea for it...

Posting from my phone - hope this works

So no pretty pictures still but I felt I should document my ideas regarding the huge massive essay we must write. My essay - provided I get permission to go ahead with it, will be about violence in animation, illustration and games - this means I can include my knowledge on martial arts and watch fight scenes for homework - PERFECT!!

Until next time :)

Blogger being mean :(

Okay so I have been trying to post images from my very unproductive christmas break for over a week now, but the image upload option is not working so again I am going to have to leave this post imageless and disappointing.

This is most frustrating...

Animating a very beautiful volcano erupting...

So for our group 'operation' we need a volcano erupting - this is a really rough attempt of illustrating what is going to happen...

more later =)
