“The Fuzz” on YouTube

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

“The Fuzz” is a 3D short that an animation class I was in last summer created. Another student from the class put it on YouTube recently so I thought I’d link it here.

Unfortunately, there’s not much in the film that I can claim as my work. As the semester went on much of the script was rewritten and many things I worked on were thrown out. So here I’m going to share a few 2D images they had me work on that didn’t make it into the final cut.

My design of Lilly Sniffsalot. Some of the storyboard artists traced it a lot, but the modelers decided to go with the design seen in the short.

My design of Paco. I don't think it was used too heavily. Kinda made him a bit too muscular now that I look back at it.

Another for the end credits. This is actually ment to go with another image that I never completed, one of Paco breaking out of his room in the clinic.

Scientist to Artists: “Ur doin it wrong!”

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

So there’s an article over on LiveScience reguarding the scientific inaccuracy in the way that artists commonly depict snow flakes.

Snowflakes are six-cornered, rather than the four-, five- and eight-cornered crystals typically depicted in children’s books, Christmas cards and even in an ad for a science magazine.

This revelation couldn’t have come sooner. It’s high time we cast off the oppressive shackles of creative license and accept only the most accurate of artwork!

In the spirit of this new scientifically-accurate artistic enlightenment, I’ve put together this graphic for you to place on your cards and presents this upcoming Valentine’s Day. Show that special someone that you really care, with anatomic correctness!

You're welcome.

You're welcome.
