Star Me Kitten

Work in progress shot from Viridian, depicting one of the last moment's of the film where... well, I don't want to spoil it. The idea with this scene is to take an environment that is initially ominous, but make it tranquil, lush, and inviting at the same time. Am I there yet? Not quite, but I'm happy with where it's going so far. This shot will be multi-planed in After Effects to give it a "fake parallax" effect seen in old Disney animation.

Film will be done first week of June, so far so good.

After having not touched it in months, I've remembered why I love Zbrush so much. Anyways, just now starting the skin detail from my anatomy class, I'm going to put a transparent shader on the skin so all of the bones and muscles will be visible underneath. If I have time, maybe even the cardiovascular system, but knowing how busy this quarter has been, don't count on it.

Two speed-paints from this afternoon, about 45 minutes each.

Overmind

Started as a speedpaint, ended up rendering it. Might go back in and work on it more later, but I'm sick of staring at it. All done in Photoshop.

On a side note, Viridian is coming together rather well, I'll have some animation tests and whatnot soon.

It's Alive!

So long story short, my pitch for SCAD's 3D collab class was chosen, and now I gotta direct it! I have ten weeks to bring this film to life... Fortunately I'm paired with a group of friends who I know will come through, but regardless, it's going to be a crazy quarter.

Bonus: This idea was thought up one hour before the class started. :o

Now that spring break has come and gone, back to work on my film. BOX work in progress so far. Put displacement maps on the "head" to help bring about the rust texture. The gear I just started, and still needs a lot of work. The rest of the body hasn't been touched yet.

More soon.

Ice Cream Spiritual

For my anatomy class, still a work in progress...

Going back in and updating the B.O.X. model... still a work in progress though, but just to have something new...

One last Photoshop painting before the career fair this weekend...

Cuttooth

Work in progress... will post the animated version once its finished.

Still a work in progress. Maya + mental ray.

Time has Told Me

Work in progress render for professor Paul Hudson's Constructive Human Anatomy class (seriously one of the most important art/design classes I have ever taken). Modeled in Maya, rendered with mental ray. Will do some Zbrushing too once I'm a bit further along on this.
