Spacefaring Winnie the Pooh

I definitely love creating backgrounds. I haven't practiced it much, generally involved in people and characters more often. My favorites comics and cartoons are the really atmospheric ones, and I really enjoyed taking CATO's background class so that I could learn and practice backgrounds. The first assignment I show here is where we were assigned to draw our kitchen and turn it into a futuristic version of our choice of animated shows. I chose Winnie the Pooh. For the other one I have here, we had to take a script of Ali Baba and then create it in the style of another show of your choice. I chose to do a Warner Bros. style.

Photoshop Class

Photoshop class was one of my favorites. I had never really used adobe software before (besides using InDesign for the high-school yearbook) and I put a lot of effort into it. These are some samples of the work that I did; a background painting, an eye, a painting of Samus Aran (a Nintendo character, not my own, and one that I did the line art to in Paint Tool Sai) and a spacescape.

Bananas; Beastly or Benign?

Here are some of the digital animation assignments. I had a lot of fun with them, and I wish that the last frame of the first one was held a bit longer, I made this awesome face for the banana! Unfortunately it only shows up for one frame or it would ruin the timing. Oh, well...

I am terribly bad at blogging...

Well, I am pretty bad at blogging. I haven't posted any of the third quarter's assignments, so here are some! These are some really small practice assignments to get used to digital animation.
