Art of John Guy: Special Effects Animation
http://looneymoon.blogspot.com/2012/02/special-effects-animation.html
Monday, February 13, 2012. Next we animated a water splash. Special effects animation can be very detailed. It is important to start by animating very general shapes to get the motion down before adding the detail. For this splash, I studied a slow-motion video of a rock being thrown in a lake. Also, as in all my special effects studies, I referenced Joe Gilland's great books: Elemental Magic both Volumes one. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Art of John Guy: May 2012
http://looneymoon.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 21, 2012. Before I started on my own T-Rex, I did a study of another artists T-Rex. I would have studied photos too, but obviously that wasn't possible in this case. First, I sketched the T-Rex. I focused on giving the sketch three-dimensional structure. To do this a studied T-Rex fossil skeletons. Then I added a quick color layer. This is just flat colors on an overlay layer on top of the grey scale layer. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Vancouver, BC, Canada. View my complete profile. Benjamin ...

Art of John Guy: Animation Exercises - week 2
http://looneymoon.blogspot.com/2012/03/animation-exercises-week-2.html
Sunday, March 4, 2012. Animation Exercises - week 2. These are this weeks Animation Exercises. This weeks subject was a very simplified head structure. I based this structure off of the structure used by Andrew Loomis in his book: Drawing the Head and Hands. This week I received some excellent advice from Rainplace (I think Mike Nguyen is his name). He recommended having an emotional motivation for the movement. I tried to work that in starting on day 6. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Big Huge Art B...

Tuesday, June 28, 2011. Chapter 5 - Ellipses and Cylinders. Tuesday, June 14, 2011. I did these short very rough animations for fun. I didn't plan out the action ahead of time.
