I am currently attempting
my degree in Digital Animation
at University College Falmouth,
I have my diploma in Film
And Media ( Moving Image )
and decided that live action
film wasn't quite for me,
however i was taken by the
animation unit we had done,
and i decided i wanted to
pursue it, it is now becoming
a passion.Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.comBlogger22125truetag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-34422444670896174732010-03-16T05:18:00.000-07:002010-03-16T05:24:44.715-07:00shattering!<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyLOzXYj33ji51yH9nAslxMBXgFNEyOts5qjIkjd6o24wmjiU5DH5HZNpgzvYYKJE52zHcsunKuPTtU-yvlXg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br />this was the initial step in shattering a glass, were shattering this for our ident project, this was just to see how the glass would behave and so on<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dyy9YmXrI5VPxvYZTupWapyeyD-x90ufrGfmkSIEFjmgsMqjkbB1M4Yv27DvZpAdDH9Iz6viOU9mUbvhx6BoQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxUulqfBQFC_R6TPgmf1cAujL2G0h7U1_151J8_I7G2DNFDu2ZU39MvLvYZLRxB9fiUJhMQ7JvInnW0JDrtgw' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br />this is a lot more advanced on from the other playblast, however this is without shadows and looking quite flat, the glass was shattered into just under 800 pieces, and looks really sweet.<br /><br /><object id="BLOG_video-FAILED" class="BLOG_video_class" contentid="FAILED" width="320" height="266"></object><br /><br />and this is more along the lines of what i was looking for, its going to be a lot brighter and look more stunning in our piece, but for now, this is what i wanted, it looks good, shatters nicely, and reacts properly with the environmentJaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-69614470754664556492010-02-19T11:26:00.000-08:002010-02-19T11:41:06.914-08:00Concept For Lip-Sync<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4nYSfYVpuX5yD3QmR0dUjQaGPSAtzY9Vz3l5IQ1SoevFSqNVkHwkKsKsI1JyxCN_MExHvgyb7fG9gBDy9Fu5V56zn-r-rOUiyskdSYiBzfAuD7uS3hzN7RV_jJlrssX7O-80mnFCJBZo/s1600-h/DSC_0286.JPG"><img style="display:block;

Im not a very artistic person, i like having a drawing of something and turning it into a 3D model, then going through that whole process, thats what i want to learn as much as i possibley can about, but having a variety of knowledge in different programmes is no really a bad thing.<br /><br />i found my mouth shapes off of google, and slighly changed the shape of the lips and teeth as to make it a bit more unique. my next step is to draw these characters in flash, get the different mouths drawn, then start listening intensly to the script and making the movements.<br /><br />im also only going to use 4 drawings for the eyes blinking and it will be at such a fast speed it shouldn't jump and look odd.Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-65625141106658823012010-02-17T13:36:00.000-08:002010-02-17T13:47:49.134-08:003 Long Days In The Studio<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxk873g_gQlMXc51ARlBnfjz0bRNkqww20TDzHo-1Yj53JRMKmEwpgjfRGZbOpls-PLzfRQ-FL3EYBoqc89th2UfojVH7pw82zgDAeDNmHF2S9FHR-dBidHvKsQEmdLeXO5rrfy34CmFM/s1600-h/Bar_17.jpg"><img style="float:left;

Also i spent a long time time trying to make glass look real, in the end we ended up using a Blinn, but it still has given a nice result...for now anyway, i would like to improve on it.<br /><br />This is also the first time i have played with lights and the UV texture editor, and i fell into the snowball effect, got excited, overlit everything, and over textured things and it looked awful. After steppign back and looking at it, i went back in and started changing things, was got rolling with it.<br /><br />All in all we have worked fantastically together, weve all inputted ideas, talked about ideas, and made contributions, i have also very much enjoyed making this.Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-41917137945566545182010-02-16T13:27:00.000-08:002010-02-16T13:31:02.634-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3sTZmWIEXe8E1qfl423k4NqG4CultviEc8LYSsHN_dGVjKVTn4kmQCXTuTx9BijUfiifiyYfOf82C_pDFl-qXOB8N0WRhVtaKrX8Kq5Q-0kZA_0mr53nCiTrBw0Kfei9ytU_lYjIB7E/s1600-h/Bulb+2.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv3sTZmWIEXe8E1qfl423k4NqG4CultviEc8LYSsHN_dGVjKVTn4kmQCXTuTx9BijUfiifiyYfOf82C_pDFl-qXOB8N0WRhVtaKrX8Kq5Q-0kZA_0mr53nCiTrBw0Kfei9ytU_lYjIB7E/s400/Bulb+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438957002044961570" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbxyIpwtBsESCL0ctSjanpYTPuwGgel3IVrnl-BmZCVLeeJJ4ZZ250iLG8rkYMe9B2IXjutC1moGbP9sHPxB3iDN5vxRVRQr5iqOLIALYlJEkBXD0bDVAfOIw21Vv-lszdBljALhhbPpE/s1600-h/Bulb+1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbxyIpwtBsESCL0ctSjanpYTPuwGgel3IVrnl-BmZCVLeeJJ4ZZ250iLG8rkYMe9B2IXjutC1moGbP9sHPxB3iDN5vxRVRQr5iqOLIALYlJEkBXD0bDVAfOIw21Vv-lszdBljALhhbPpE/s400/Bulb+1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438956930557452658" /></a><br /><br /><br />Today, we began building our idea for our IDENT, which is for Virgin's Redrooms, working ina team of 3 we have come up with a strong idea, and our main feature were doing is making everything crisp and clear, highly detailed and hi-res! but there will be more to come on this as we get further with it!Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-61266520034484380172010-02-15T13:37:00.000-08:002010-02-15T13:38:19.259-08:00Live@5 Day!After arriving in the studio to begin working at 9 o’clock, I found myself to be the only person their, then after double checking the time on moodle I noticed the time had been changed from 9 to 10. After Pete showed up it was between me and Nigel to decide who was the producer, and I took on the role.<br />I really enjoyed having the responsibility, I work well under pressure, making quick decisions etc. after collaborating with the Live@5’s producer on what graphics they wanted, we began work, I had four team member and set them going on different graphics each, my reasoning for doing this was I am confident with after effects, so I could float around and tweak the graphics as they were being made, and be there for help if it was needed.<br />We had to have the graphics ready for 2 o’clock, and we had them done by 12:30, so we had nothing else to do, I asked there producer if they would like any more things done and he said they were set, so we had a lunch break, after returning Pete asked us if we would make the World News graphics, which having 5 hours or so to kill, we did, and I again I set the team on different graphics and helped out were I was needed, keeping a close contact with the producer.<br />The World news crew were very appreciative and happy with what we made, and they seemed a lot more organised with what they wanted, for starters they gave us a specific description of they wanted, which made making it clear for us, however the Live@5 crew expected us to just come up with them, which did at some points feel like we were banging our heads against a brick wall, and then they gave us criticism for our graphics, and I replied by telling them to be more clear with what they want in future, to avoid making their show look amateur. Them seemed to take the advice onboard.<br />The graphics I made for the show was the surf report and the football score table, and I was disheartened with what I made, I could of made it so much better and more visually stimulating, but they kept telling me to leave it plain, bland with no transitions whatsoever, this made their news report look dull, it didn’t complement anything they did, so it was a bit of a shamble, but the client is always right.<br />They also tried to tell us about mistakes in the Aston’s, which was their error on the notes they scribbled down for us, which there lecturer gave them a talking to about, saying they weren’t allowed to blame graphics for their simple mistake. We didn’t really face any major obstacles throughout the day, the only problem we had was with the communication with the other crew, which admittedly got quite frustrating but we pulled through by using our own ideas as a group on what it should look like, as they gave us terrible guidelines of what they wanted from us.<br />The surf report I made used a piece of stock footage from the video compositors tool kit, which was a beautiful HD slow motion water movement, with a table over the top showing the tide times, it was all made in After Effects using simplistic tools and took mo time whatsoever, and the football table, in my opinion was disgusting, it think they needed it quick because they were behind on editing their package together, but still, in the time I had, I could of made something more professional, but once he saw the start of it, the basic building blocks, he told me to put some colour on the words “Falmouth Town” and then he would just use that, I was gobsmacked at the lack of professionalism within their work.<br />They didn’t seem appreciative of anything we done for them, which bugged me a bit because we tried to give them something good, and they were snatching it away from us before we could make it to an industry standard, which is what I wanted my team and I to achieve.<br />We had a fantastic title strap built, which most of the credit for it goes to Sasha, but we had a great animated title strap, and it was ready for them at 12, I rang and told the producer all 8 straps were ready and to come and pick them, he replied he would be up straight away, an hour and a half later he came to collect them, by the time he got it to their avid studious, it was to late for them to add it to the packages, so we had to cut them down to jpeg’s, cut the effects off of them, and then leave them plain, and there editors slapped them on the screen live, and it looked awful, no subtlety to it at all.<br />I feel my team and I really worked well together throughout the day, we kept high communication with each other, we all chipped in on everything, everybody gave ideas and we expanded on them as a group, I felt I lead very well and hit the ground running. I think we were the first group so far to get the live@5 and World News graphics done, which is a nice feeling to know that we pushed ourselves, I expected a lot from my team and got more, and I am very proud of the day.<br />All in all today made me question what I believe to be a industry standard of work, I believe everything I make should be good enough to se on television, and should look the part, I could never be happy settling for something I know could be better, but maybe I am working at to much of a high standard already, or maybe I am setting my goals to high and overcomplicating things, but then again, this is my learning style, I set myself challenges, I wouldn’t get that great sense of achievement if I didn’t reach what I first that to be a unreachable goal.Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-84102081042765558772010-02-15T12:08:00.000-08:002010-02-15T12:11:01.306-08:00High tide Graphic<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dzPYJqIkpCGxIjzBh01Ik7LsLQcY91TnZk1KS2EfP6dmdqGVtnkpu-LDmhUE9cz-EHvq8C3JTBMidD97ZnM' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br /><br />Here i built the background for the graphic for the live@5 MA team, the graph was built by someone else and i gave it the moving background and the white tint, using after effects and doing some basic keying allowed me to do this, it was fun, but i used hi-def stock footage from the compositors tool kit, which meant i didnt have to film anything myself.Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-34909173296583848912010-02-05T13:07:00.000-08:002010-02-05T13:10:12.424-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYUOMP6t8y3FV0FwlMwTKo5JkTsa8N6PzSDjx2iOJL_0qrn3ek_CQN4LGdBU0WAF9ZPpz0-4XGLkLrIInlibnciiIjdinTo5PFA_ovnM5hClJq4JRVRD_HMyol4Vj9IUkg_zdAQS3lpDA/s1600-h/DSC00120.JPG"><img style="float:left;

Ive had a lot of ideas for some little animations so im looking forward to maybe making them! im really looking forward to working with after affects and the broadcasting students on the live at 5 online news show, which should be great experience! so i will be back here no doubt in the next couple of days with some sketch

Walk in 3DI decided to have a go the other day in the studio at trying a 2D hand drawn sneak walk, i haad about 3 attempts at it and got very fustrated, it just wasnt't working at all, so i thought id give it ago in 3D, now ive been using Richard Williams' Animators Survival guide, making different cycles etc, but i thought i woner if i could apply this to 3D in the same way, so i animated on the same frame rate as i would of hand drawing it, and low and behold i feel like it's worked, im actually very pleased with this, it could do with a few tweaks in places, but overall im happy.<br /><br

First Rig!Been set an assignment of copying my own walk in 2+3D animation, putting my own personality into my walk, and basically copying my own walk, anyway i think i should be okay at doing this in 2D, but i think 3D is going to be a big challenge, so ive been playing around with the rig and trying to get a feel for how it works etc, i realise that this walk is a bit slow, but i was making it slow on purpose, so i could see where key moments were and so i could see where to put the toes moving etc. Anyway here it is from two different Angles.<br /><br /><iframe

extruding, dragging out faces and manipulating them, then taking me into the world of vertexes and getting detailed shapes, which then lead into using edge loops to get an even more detailed realistic finish, then it took me into texturing within maya, which i found incredibly confusing! however it was very rewarding, really improved my understanding of how maya works, and what tools do etc, it

the squash and stretch of an object as it moves. Me personally, i think 2d animation, especially hand drawn, is amazing, so much time and effort goes into it, and the end result is amazing, however im more interestd in the 3d aspect of animation, i enjoy the technicallities of animation and the technilogical problems that i have to overcome, learning a programme and creating something </span>within it is more my thing.</p>Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-12933051120174121902009-10-14T07:45:00.000-07:002009-10-14T07:52:45.849-07:00My GarageThis is my first 3d animation made in Maya, that isn't an assignment, from doing this i learned a lot in maya, like how to switch between certain things, using the hyper shader, different textures, colouring, animating, rendering, keyboard shortcuts, of course my knowledge so far into this is at a very low level but now im just looking foward to building further on this knowledge and increasing my power within Maya.<br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dztvDJkvH2V6F95ukyEgHD0ExH4RLYNau1gca2YzWaPr64BnHRXUoyGF5E3nrUbXEzjvGUe1EpLwcbpzZg-DA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-38157365403739704872009-10-08T02:57:00.000-07:002009-10-08T10:56:53.678-07:00<img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHGiL2DNwiCPMRGswqiqQEesI7McJz2KsAawAbkj13dN9ovTkiMlxBtAoeDUjdONYMcBk2tgOInOtG-rwKWFwIBJ6AW2vW-z4RHst0s7jjfbPE-5DsK1JHoPtxXAzQaFNMFUnXmtGm2vM/s320/IMAG0059.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390289115719344466" /><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjkboFdetl9r0P-G6JbpClior007qA7QfT3DO5GRI8wpX5Cq2mDET2aIgvKGyR5z5hyphenhyphencwtt9-ZJHRQhTaEeMU22iImO_J7Htg7FO3jNCTxvHPYDTn6zlZZ4k9TAQAQ5Nd3fu_X4xKNXNQ/s320/IMAG0058.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390289324039609314" /><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivmdsAwrFH5dzVCxkZplHFpVzBjZRWKCyPT-rHqOULcOuxbSDL65QVKiyLvsIXjS-Zk_ZFLm3b0kTAO_0Dv6bve0vDzRElNkmqyr7kSvjPtbBcPXxdTlMhwmqK2GgNjTe87oLlQ1kCb0s/s320/IMAG0060.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390289480558096114" /><br /><br /><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:'trebuchet ms', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:Georgia, serif;">I have been using maya, i have an amazing tutorial book for it, and im up to the second project, im really enjoying it. ive just started to learn the basics, and i produced this "garage" in my first proper attempt, and this is only from the basics, so i am really looking forward to learning more advanced and technical things!</span></span></div>Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332291498540796654.post-79514147827770858622009-10-06T10:31:00.000-07:002009-10-06T10:49:58.225-07:00My First History And Theory Lecture<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuWrNoUikIlcV_RUEmsNQY45x1_d7QcMolfIl-NZSVB4BEMVUnXjp74EP1Y8H85OONp5CJvwhZ3qz4e6xBVxCvHjwX7kkflTezDtK7CU0XFNE8prOMG6EuaczcjUqKrhDGg8S3C5Lbzmg/s1600-h/skeletondanceltd.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuWrNoUikIlcV_RUEmsNQY45x1_d7QcMolfIl-NZSVB4BEMVUnXjp74EP1Y8H85OONp5CJvwhZ3qz4e6xBVxCvHjwX7kkflTezDtK7CU0XFNE8prOMG6EuaczcjUqKrhDGg8S3C5Lbzmg/s320/skeletondanceltd.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389542695335217074" /></a><br />I had my first lecture with Ann Owen today, i was completely dreading it, when your told you have a 3 hour lecture on history and theory, it's enough to put anyone off, but i was pleasantly surprised, i was completely overwhelmed with information, but it was good because i feel like i have taken a lot away from today, like for instance a very interesting quote " Study the historian, Before you go an study the history" i thought that was brilliant! <div><br /></div><div>We watched some very interesting animations and one of witch was Skeleton Dance, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq-NKrC6itQ I found this piece to be very hypnotic, for the year that it was made (1929) according to the imdb, it is seamless, every single second of this animation flows incredibly! this i think is a golden little piece and one that i won't be forgetting for a while.</div><div><br /></div><div><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 120px; height: 90px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibmjROGaGCKgskK26w28RTY3aZSx-nyTW8mfT5y8ta3QwO4xWTJ1wblXw-D_Xf87RNzIjA_f1bdWddD42RlLsE9y6XI7cDTWYvygtLCLiaLvwnX_b_z-TzZJBLagrRHSyI6zWWMUy0CVg/s320/Felic.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389544494642475218" /></div><div><br /></div><div>And this film here, Felix Turns The Tide (1922) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGuYBR0qNvk again has incredible seamless animation, weather this be cell animation i don't know, but it is fantastic, i really made me look on in amazement, for something made over 80 years ago, and for it to still have this effect, brilliant, goal achieved i would say.</div>Jaffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09628818869281837076noreply@blogger.com0
