Graduation

Well,
last Friday, myself and some good friends graduated from University of Glamorgan, Atrium.
It was Great to see some of the faces that i havnt seen much of over the last month and we had a very big, alcohol fueled celebration to round off our 4 years together.
Jamie and Joe are still up in Scotland at the moment, so the plan is to go up with Alex and visit them for a weekend within the next month before they come home - dont worry they were home for graduation - as seen in the picture of me and them below.

So whats the plan now? Animate and job hunt i guess.lol
and to stay in touch and still see my friends.

Here are two pics for you to have a look at -

Jamie,Joseph and Myself @ Graduation

End of an Era.......

So this week saw my last week in university...
Its quite a sad time for me as I will not be seeing as much of all the amazing friends and people I have met over the last four years.
However im sure it will not be the last time I see their faces.
Now that I am being let out into the big wide world, I have put together a showreel.
My Showreel is just a small sample of the work I have been working on for the last 6 months.
as time goes on i will be adding and changing around peices of work that i have produced.

on another note......

Myself and Alex ( http://ajsanimation.blogspot.com/ ) went to see Terminator Salvation yesterday.
i was pleasantly suprised with how good the film was. Infact, I loved it. The CG was very well done, especially the Arnie cameo......
I wont say any more about it as I dont want to spoil it....so go watch it!!

Anyway ill leave you with my showreel.........

The Double Bounce and a bit of Music

Ok,

so im working on a double bounce walk at the moment.
its a bit of a challange, but its great fun to try and re-create the 1930's double bounce.
here is what i have so far, its early stages, just trying to get the body and legs working.....

Also i have started a new dialouge peice for uni.

i decided to do something a little different.

i wanted to bring the musical element that disney and other animation studios bring to there 2D productions to Computer animation -

so iv started a block out.not quite sure on some of the poses, but i only really started it yesterday so its a long way to go.

the clip is from FAME the musical, the song is - I want to make magic

aswell as these two i have a lot on at the moment so i try and keep u posted best i can

i cant seem to post the video in this blog.so i will upload it on another blog :)

bye for now
