Ballet Girls animatic

Starting to reconsider the direction of thesis. Perhaps it's less about people killing themselves and more about why the characters don't kill themselves. Interesting....

Here's another animatic for "The Ballet Girls"

Rough animatics for "The Bros"

Here are 3 very rough animatics for my "Bros" skit. I'm trying to pick the "funniest" one. Gawd only knows why I can't embed the damn things, so here's a temporary fix.

Thesis sketches- thrilling. Simply thrilling.




Here are some quick character sketches for my thesis idea. The basic premise: a dark comedy consisting of a variety of shorts on suicide using a friend's personal experiences.

Pure, unadulterated shame

After reading only a few of John K's blog posts about cartooning techniques and theories, I feel absolutely, 100%, devastatingly ashamed I ever called myself "an animator."

As penance, I am posting last spring's 3D final for your uncensored ridicule.




That being done, I am back to the vacancy of the ether-webs to scrounge any and all knowledge from much smarter people than I.
AVAST MATEYS!
