Sheepishly Good Luck

A short I'm making for summer2013.. "sheepishly good luck" might enter it for like D&AD etc.. havnt decided yet. still in the modelling and texture stages. Keep your eyes open...

Football kick-ups.. animation..

Just testing my ball controls in animation.. this was weird interacting with an inanimate object.. (lol  insert "In Bruges" reference here to a fuckin' inanimate object). The ball had to have the right weight and 'boucyness'.. the key-framing is a  bit all over the place.. I feel that motion capture is built for this kind of animation.

The animation is about 80% done so be patient, just the arms to do.. the arms i think will help add weight as he will look more balanced. Again just waiting on some software/license issues.(to composit)

Just What I've been working on lately (post for A.W)

Two images showing hair dynamics working>> I will composite the video together when I get my premier/after effects working again.. this is all so I can re-enter the DAFF 2013 competition again this year and hopefully win this time.. still happy with third place though..

My shining creepy, a short remastered and totally new homage to jack Nicholson to understand scary unhinged performance.

Yeti scene interactive with the camera, breaks forth wall between animation and audience, still under construction but will be scary giving good audio.

Client Fur

Artefact 1. Revised and completed

Apologies I don't know why it isn't widescreen, is in my video, think its because I only have a standard vimeo account they said they would HD it. Its only 160MB now instead of 2GB, could further condense it but takes quality off a little more.

Purpose of the piece is to establish how scary creatures and characters move. Here is the first death scene from the movie Alien, where the xenomorph creature has been substituted with a deranged human, carrying all the same movements. Is it still scary or does the human need the form. Does form create the first movements in the viewers mind? can you not scary without looking frightening? further questions answered in other artefacts.

Artefacts - where am I?

Preview shots of an Artefact, More to come over next week. Trying t catch up having missed some uni. Werewolf movements and a scene from the shining being worked on too.
