Hey everyone! Well, I've just finished Animation Mentor last week!! Wow! It looks like I was posting about it getting started not so long ago and now it's over! SUPER fast!! But hey, the good news is, I have a brand new, right out of the oven, DEMO-REEL to share! So, here it is! I hope you guys like it:

I'm in CHARGE again!

Hey All!
So, this is my re-Polished, re-Rendered, HD Res, *Final version for my Class 5 dialogue shot! Wow! ;) This is the one going on the new Demo Reel coming soon! I hope you enjoy:

Another WIP

New shot I'm working on for class 6! This is the second blocking pass:

Dialogue progress WIP

OK, so this is my WIP polishing pass for the dialogue. I think it still needs a lot of work but I decided to post it as an update to the last one. Hope you like it:

BLOCKING!

Heeeeeey!!! Well, it's been a while since I last posted "in-progress" stuff here. BUT, I decided that it's nice to have the shot's evolution posted in the blog, so people outside AM can follow it's progress. So here it is! This is my next dialogue shot in AM and this is the very first BLOCKING pass! "Enjoy":

New Dialogue Shot!

I just finished my first dialogue animation in AM! I still think there are many things that could be improved, but I'll leave that for the "Polishing and Portfolio" class next term... For now, I compiled another demo reel that I'll be taking to CTN Animation Expo next month! Can't wait!!

Temporary 2011 Demo-Reel

Hey there!! Here's a demo-reel I've put together while working on my dialogue shots. It has the body mechanics shots I most liked from class 1 to 4. I'll update it with my dialogue shots and maybe some other mechanics shots as soon as I finnish them. Hope you enjoy! =)

1 YEAR!

Hey it's my birthday again! And if you remember, my last birthday was also my first day at Animation Mentor! So, after 1 year, I'm glad to say I'm just as happy as I was in the first day about being in this school! It's AWESOME! Class 5 just started and soon I'll have a full dialogue shot (monologue actually) to share here! Meanwhile, here's my pantomime shot from class 4. Cheers!

YouAnimator

Yesterday I found a website called youanimator and decided to register. I uploaded 3 of my class 2 animations and today I received an email saying I was highlighted in the main page! That's totally awesome! =D

Class 2 Progress Reel!

So, without any further delay, here's my Class 2 Progress Reel!:



As you can see, there are some rendered versions of the animations I already posted here, as well as all my class 1 animations. Thanks for watching! =D

Hopscotch Splined

This is the hopscotch animation splined. It is the last assignment for Class 2! I still feel that it needs some adjustments, but Class 2 is over now, so, if I ever come back to it, it will be in a while, maybe after class 3 is over, cause we starting right away next week! Woot!! Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! Cheers!

Hopscotch

Ok, so I'm doing a hopscotch animation for my final Class 02 assignment! Wow! this is going sooo fast! It is the first assignment with a full character (Stewie) with legs, spine and arms! Great! So here is the blocking pass, any comment, leave a comment! (hehe):

Week 7

Ok, so this is the final version of the "Fall" animation. If you're wondering why no week 6 post, I can explain (hehe): Week 6 was this same animation in rough spline, so I decided to wait a little more and show the final version instead. Hope you like it! Here it is:

Week 5

So, in one single video, the week 5 assignment aaaand the Kick Ball revision:

Week 4

So here it is, the polishing pass:

Week 3

So this is my week 3 assignment:



As you can see, I changed the camera and worked the poses more. I have a lot more poses now which is gonna make the transition to spline a lot easier. Still some things to adjust before doing that though. Hope you all like how it's coming along! Any suggestions, leave a comment! =D Thanks!

Hey Blog! Week 2!!!

Oh! Yes yes... the BLOG!! Class 2 is at full speed now and I should be posting something already!!! My apologies for that... Actually, week 1 was practically just the Progress Reel that is already here... so, I think it's ok to start off with WEEK 2!

In week 2, we get to pick from a list of several different options to animate. I chose "Kick a ball".

So here it is, first blocking pass for the "Kick Ball" Assignment:

Week 12

So, without further delay, here's week 12 assignment: The Progress Reel!
