The Concept
I thought I'd just share a simple idea that comes in handy when dealing with rough

Into the 3rd
Today I spent a ridiculously hot and humid summery day sculpting some maquettes in the city from the 2d designs that were produced earlier. After blocking out the masses of the characters, I transported them home and set them up for a first pass analysis. Now I'm at …

I was out lunch out one day when a group of ex-highschool jocks came up and started talking to me. Trying my hardest to avoid eye-contact was unsuccessful, so pulling out a big fake smile was the best thing I could do.
Late
Recently I've been quite the insomniac. Twelve thousand, and twenty six million, seventy four hundred and two things are flowing through my head, but I think most of my brain shuts down post 1am after a hard day's work. I figured that I can't really safely process …

Why I love
If you know me, you'd know that my pencil to paper renders an affinity to me and bears. I mean really, a lot of bears. I wrap presents to my loved one in bears,

Groundhog
Another Illustration for the Hatchlings Application. I still don't get what the heck is up with the whole Groundhog Day tradition, but they sure are funny looking guys. Upon research, I learned that people call this critter the land beaver, whistlepig and of course …

Clowning around with Character

Establishing shape is essential to strong character design. Finding good lines of rhythm and flow will allow the forms to move more freely.
Progress
Even though I don't think it changes enough people, I think that a new symbol brings forth an outlet to rightfully

Yes
Yes Man was fun to watch, but left me feeling a little dirty that I laughed at the dumb slapstick jokes that the rows of jiggly fat ladies, and teenage girls wet their pants over.
BIG
On a more personal note (& God knows when the last time one of those was), there are some pretty big things happening for me. It's 2009, and I'm crazily excited & nervous about the future.
I'm turning 20 soon, but I still feel like a big kid. The liquor stores agree and …
Seven
What a rough film to watch! Will Smith's new flick is another amazing performance to remember.
Talking about Seven Pounds' story in depth would ruin the payoff of the plot, but I'll say that it gives you a good ride. It all revolves around the process of ultimate …
Tailoring: Part
Life's pretty unremarkable at the moment, so I've been trying to get productive. Just experimenting with cloth pinning and springs to develop a lightweight system to simulate cloth for my 3d film. Still very crude, but it's reacting pretty well in live …
