Idea Illustration

For Artificial Environments and Effects, we we were given idea topics to illustrate. I was given "Lust" and "Death." Since we had to get the topic across as easily and as visually digestibly as possible, we were instructed to look at advertisements or guerilla marketing.

See if you can figure out which is which. Should be easy.

Finalized breakdowns

These were all part of my pitch for my take on our senior movie:

Preliminary Breakdowns

In Artificial Environments and Effects we're breaking down our senior movie "Ladybug Action Hero's" script. We were assigned to individually break down the action into plan views (bird's eye view) and elevations (profile view). Here are the first versions I created:

Stepped Character Animation

For the next assignment in Artificial Characters, we had to do a character animation that carried a certain "attitude" or "motivation"... generally, some sort of "gimmick" that would make a basic action more interesting/entertaining. For mine, I had my character getting out of a(n invisible) chair that he was stuck/glued to.

3D Walk Cycle

First assignment for Artificial Characters Workshop: 3D Walk Cycle. We had to take our 2D walk cycles we hand-animated as our final projects from our first semester and use an already-rigged character model and translate the walk cycle into 3D by keying the character to match every frame of our 2D walk cycle as best as we could.
