Just found out my student Flash film "Rex" got selected for the Portuguese film festival 'Animatu' for 2008! I don't think I've ever had any films be in any animation festival, so this is really cool !
here's the film:
Overall the thing is hard for me to watch, though there are still some things about it I think aren't so bad, mostly the color. The ending with the snail didn't really read as well as I had originally planned. The idea was that when a slug gets scared he does it in slow motion, but mostly he just looks angry, not scared! I learned a lot though! |

Which Kaguri do you like more?
I'm having the most fun right now playing with color, reading about color, trying to apply it to my comic. It's funny to me that I have taken in total 3 color theory classes, one back at university with my graphic design BFA and a couple more at VFS. Despite that I still don't know what the hell I'm doing. I've learned more watching older cartoons and some modern ones, pretty much stealing color choices & figuring out why they work.
UNTIL NEXT POST! |

Work is going steadily on GUAK! My plan to get 3 full strips done is working. I have 1 fully inked & colored, another one inked and the third one is in the rough 'layout' stage.
I'm extremely busy at work, I usually pull 10 or 11 hour days, & I still try to commit at least an hour to working on GUAK. It's tough but it's all coming together slowly.
It's SO DIFFICULT to NOT post the first comic right now. Why do I feel so compelled to just splurge my work all over the internets as soon as I am done with it, or in most cases, before I'm even done?
NO! NO! NONONONONONONO!!! |

I've been working on a new webcomic, called GUAK. It's gonna be my first adventure comic. I wanna show what I have so far but I've learned not to do that. Gotta wait till it's done, man! I'll have at least 3 full color comics done before I 'publish' them online, after I decide how I want to go about doing that (comicspace?)
After that I'm gonna let it go on as long as possible.
Here's a snippet. It's a peaceful Kaguri!

hey gang, I entered this month's 11 Second Club challenge in an effort to beef up my portfolio. I used Toon Boom, which is what I've been using since I graduated 2 years ago.
Here it is in 3 parts!
Rough 'board' poses:
Rough animation:
...and the final peice:
Took me roughly 9 or 10 hours in all to complete. I'm used to doing very broad, comedic animation at work, so it was really nice to be able to animate some moody, dramatic dialogue & try my hand at some real acting. |

[Jul. 9th, 2008|08:31 am] |
I've been doing storyboarding where I work for about a month or two. Hard fuckin' work it is. I got it easy though, I'm able to keep my boards rough. SO much drawing. Its made me realize where my strengths & where my weaknesses are as far as draftsmanship is concerned.
I seem to be good with expressions & dialogue, not so hot with action & structure. Storyboarding is FORCING me to draw correctly. If I fuck a drawing up it fucks the animator up, & I know what it's like trying to animate a scene with shitty boards, it's not fun.
Anyways, I'm a shit. I don't draw outside of work. I start projects & never finish them. i wanted to commit myself to drawings something in flash or photoshop once every morning and post it, but you know what? If i have it in my head that this is a project, I wont stick with it. So I'm just going to draw something today, post it, & see what happens tomorrow!
BUNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!1
