Speed Painting
Since I'm working as a Digital painter/colourist for Gareth Sharples 3rd year project I thought it'll be a good idea to fresh up on my photoshop skills.
My desktop is finally up and running again, so I did a speed painting.

Norwegian Awesomeness
Allrighty!
Haven't posted in ages now. Not that much to talk about at the moment.
So while we wait for something to happen I thought I'd post some norwegian awesomeness.
The first one is about one of the stylists in Norway who has a secret identity.
Its very simple made, but I still find it hilarious because this is how the person is in real life :D (almost) They make fun of all the celebrities in Norway
It's in norwegian, so sorry to all you non-norwegian-speaking people who can't understand what they're saying.
The other one is actually one of my all time favorites. Wich I'm sure most of you have seen before.
It's the music video for Aha - Take on me. (Directed by Steve Barron in 1985)
Just brilliant work combinig rotoscoping and real life-action. Say what you want about the song (Wich is brilliant!) but the video is AWESOME!

Experimental Project
After being told that it would be smart to change my experimental project I decided to go a complete different way with my animation.
I'd almost finished the ballerina one so if I was to change everything I think she would fall apart.
She doesn't have that many hours of animation left in her.
It did make me a bit upset, because I was quite happy with what I'd done so far.
But I don't feel that all the hours I put into it is wasted, because I've learned a lot about stop motion, and I have a lot more respect for the people who do it. I do not have the pations for stop motion at all. I was not enjoying doing it...
So the second one I did is a simple cardboard animation. I had some coins laying around so I thought I'd use them too.
I saw this really cool animation on youtube where they make money explode, and that's what inspired me to use the money as ammo.
I made my own dopesheet and planned out the scenes, and I managed to get it doen in time.
I'd say it's got a bit of a childish look, but I'm happy with the result.
(I'll post some of the drawings and stuff later today.)

11 Second Club
Allrighty!
My 11 Second project is finally done! (Weeee)
Used the blake rig for the two dudes talking to eachother. I found that rig to be the best one to animate with.
Then I modeled the rest of the objects in the scene.
I'm really happy with the genie. I like the way he looks. He's got that "ghosty" look over him.
It's been a lot of work (believe it or not) but I managed to get it done in time, and I'm quite happy with how it turned out.
Enjoy!

Experimental Update
Allrighty,
I've started animating my doll, and for a teaser I'm posting one of the tests I did.
It all went pretty well, untill the right arm fell off...
I did manage to get some seconds of footage tho. Because the arm fell of I decided to do the part where the leafs and flowers grow over her.
Hopefully when I continue today (I fixed the arm) I can make the flowers look a bit simmilar to how they where.

Experimental update
Finally, my ballerina doll is done!
Hair made out of cotton, with a band of silk around it to make her look more like a ballerina.
And I just drew the face on with filt tip pens. However, I did use white nailpolish for the eyes so it gives it a bit of a wet look.
It wasn't suppose to take this long, but when I first painted her body, the paint I used turned into a horrible alien-green colour when it started to dry. So I had to wait for the paint to dry before I could paint over it with a more blueish colour.
I used oilpaint for the colours. I was planning on just using normal watercolours, but the oilpaint made it look more even and nicer.
I'm glad she's finally done, cus now I can start making her move!
