Lunch sketch

During my lunch break from texturing today, thought I would do a little zbrush sculpting. I had the wicked disgusting head reference from this creature, I know I want it to fly so maybe it will be like a vulture.

Will do a couple of paint over tonight I think, to try some different desgins, so I can progress with it at lunch tomorrow

Uni shorts film fest 2013

We went to the Uni shorts film fest yesterday, and ended up winning best animation category for Funeral Home Pinatas, which was awesome. It was great meeting so many cool student film makers and the wicked guest judge Chris ‘Doc’ Wyatt, producer of 2004 cult hit Napoleon Dynamite.

It's been ages

Man, its been ages since I last updated this. Well still job hunting and making new work for a new demo reel. 

I finished the main part of my script writing course, and have the entire layout of the movie sorted, im sure it will be tweaked during re-writes. I have started the first proper draft and I am 20 pages in. It was originally going to be a short film, but my friend has got me writing it as a feature, so only another 100 pages to go :)

Here is an update on my post apoc entry for cghub,  I missed the deadline, but I didn't want to rush it so I can have some high quality work for my portfolio. I am enjoying how it is turning out so far, still have a few areas to clean up. I tried transposing the hands in zbrush but it was taking to long, so I zipped the hand across to maya and threw some joints in to making posing easier.

On a side note, the short films we made for school have been doing well on the film fest circuit which is great, and Funeral Home Pinatas is in Annecy Festival (France), Melbourne International Animated Festival (Australia) and Uni Shorts (New Zealand) 2013.
