The Magical Collaborative Comics

This week we decided to start a collaborative comics project. This means every time someone will post a continue to the comics and eventually without planning ahead we will develop a story.

This is the first page of the comics that I posted this week.

The comics is being posted in our Bachelor year crazy blog BECAUSE MAGIC

An animation test that I made, preparing for this week of attitude walks.

The Scared Scary Monster

A monster week, special for Halloween.

We had two days of intro to Photoshop, and we were asked to make a monster in its natural environment.

 I added some of the thumbnails and sketches too.

The Weekly Caricatures

New week, new caricatures.

Mickey Mouse Touch Up

A touched up version for the Mickey Mouse scene.

After experiencing with inbetweening, we went back to our Mickey animation and gave it some more magic.

Inbetween

So this week we were working on Inbetweening. 

We were given the Key Frames and Breakdowns of a scene from 'Brendan And The Secret of Kells', and we got to inbetween it. Aisling (the girl) has got so much personality in her eyes.

Kaj Pindal: Have a good time, and share it with the audience.

Drawing for Animation class with Frederik Villumsen.
In the past 2 weeks we have been working on a Mickey Mouse scene, using the model from Fantasia.

The guidelines were 6 sec, Mickey casts a spell and then gets disappointed by the result.

In this assignment I wanted my story to be very clear, and that I would hit the audience exactly where I was aiming for. In the end, telling a story and communicating with the audience is the most important part of Animation. Close to the end of the project, after having a small visit in my workstation from Kaj Pindal, I understood how timing was the tool that made the biggest difference in achieving that goal.
