Pacman Animation

Here's my first go at animating on Autodesk's Maya. I had lots of fun making these sequences. Part of my criteria was testing with acceleration, deceleration  weight and emotion which I think I managed to do. cant wait for my next animation project now.

Long Time no Posting

Hi everybody!

It's been a really long time since (like nearly a year I think :P). Anyway, to bring us up to speed of what happened since I last posted, I had an interview at the University of Glamorgan for a Computer Animation course. I was then offered a conditional place on the course as long as I passed my year on art foundation. Around that time I specialized in animation on the foundation course and soon after began my final major project. After the project was done (which was a lot of work) I exhibited my work and soon after received my results. I got a Merit!!! So I more than met the criteria to go on to Computer animation. Now I am about a month into the course and I love it. I have completed two projects so far and I am in the middle of a character design project at the moment. Below are some rendered images of my last project where I modeled a fruit bowl in Autodesk's Maya. The criteria for the project was to create a realistic image and an altered image which are both shown. This is my first try at a 3D package so I'm pleased with the outcome.
Anyway better be off but I hope to post a bit more regularly from now on (I say hopefully). Bye for now :)

Art work update

Hi guys!
Its been a very long time. I've been doing lots of 2 day projects on my course since I last updated. I am actually behind on work a bit as well making it hard to update :P anyway I just wanted to show some of the best of the work so far.
 This was one of the better photograms I have made.
 I made this model in 3D design. I made it with the dynamic and tension features in mind.

 These are floral study portraits I made.

 These are still life studies of a shoe I made.
 I made this Image of a shoe using a printing method.
 This was the final piece of my fine art project. I had to transform a book into a 3D piece of our choice. My piece was made of fairytale books so my piece represented a mermaid.

 This was part of my graphic design project. I had to make different fonts for one letter based on different adjectives.





 This was my photography project. I had to take photographs based on different words and phases. I also made photographs by manipulating paper and light.



 This was my 3D design project. the brief for this project was to make a 3D piece that that transforms when light is put to it and transforms light around it. So basically I made a lampshade.
 This was my fashion and textiles project. I had to make a garment out of plastics (such as carrier bags) that are manipulated by heat (using an iron). I made a bobble hat with a checkered pattern.

It looks like the embed doesn't seem to work so here's the link until I sort it out:

This was my animation project. For this project I had to create my own character design, a model of this character made from paper and then a short clip of this character moving. My character was a creepy doctor crocodile. I really enjoyed making it.

I hope you like the work so far. I'm off to Venice next week to see the Venice Biennale. Very excited! I hope to see some very exciting work while I'm there. Again hopefully I will be updating the  more regularly now... but I wont hold my breathe :P
Bye till then :D
