Daisy Chain

Here is my link of the daisy chain my class did. It doesnt have all the scenes, I removed them for they were badly animated and didnt make much sense. So the start, SC2 and the end is really all you need. Not bad for one of my first animations done in flash. (Of coarse thie is the revised version so the animation looks better than it originally did).

Final Motivation

Well it's finaly done, my technique run is complete. Uh, about the color on the mouse, he was completely filled in with color, but for some reason when you export it it kind of makes some bits of him see through & I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it yet, so just look at the animtion instead of the color. I may submit a colored version of the BG with just the uncolered mouse later.

Voices: I' smell cheese' done by Katelyn (Chib) Stetson & 'Ooo Cat' done by Chrissi Harper.

They Better Not Eat US!

This was an animation test provided by Jon Lame. He made the character and did the keys. Our job was to inbetween the little guy, do the lip sync and add other various elements to make him more awesome.

Silent Tears . Cover Art

Silent Tears is a comic that I have created in short about a girl in search of revenge. But she is haveing a hard time getting to that point. I've written the scripts for the first volume, which are now online, (see below). Someday, I shall draw them out, once school is done perhaps. For now the scripts are written as they would be for a tv showm or movie. Why? Because I didn't know how to write comic scripts. I recently found out & I am in the process of writing them in comic form. NOTE: Minami Akayama Kyuki is me, Alex Molloy.

A little about the story:

Minami Kyuki's hearts a battle ground of despair. Faced with more difficulties in her life than the normal teen, Minami copes by living one day at a time. But how long before the tragic evens of her past haunts her to her death?

Volume 1: Tears of a Warrior. Read the scripts on DeviantArt.

Volume 2 features Kayla Connery, Minami's best friend on the cover. Volume 2 not available online yet.

Mock Demo Reel

Well here is my second mock demo reel. Im re-doing it now for my thrid deliverable, but I thought it would be cool if you saw some progression in my demo rell, so here it is before. Music is used with permission. I will post my new demo reel with better stuff on it online when that's done, and when my final demo reel is done, that will be here too.

EDIT: I got some revisions on this, and as soon as I finnish them and update this with new and better stuff, I will post it here.

Motivation BG

Here is my latest BG for my latest animation assigment, which will be my first officially fully colored animation. It will be epic haha.

Goofy Head Turn

A quick little head turn excercise we did in class of Disney's well known character, Goofy. I love this guy.

Animation Sell Sheets

Here is my first draft of my sell sheet, done for the end of my portfolio class last term.

I got lot's of revisions to do in order to make this the best sell sheet ever, but it still looks good for the moment. It shall be even better when it's done, near the end of June.

Some of the characters on this page, in no order: Mike, Venessa Doumont, Minami Kyuki, Mark Stagger, some life drawing, and Tori.

Venessa Expressions

This is Venessa Doumont from my comic Silent Tears. This was my first animation done in my second year of animation at NBCC. Turned out very nice I find. I have a colored version as well, but some how the timing got all messed up, so I got to fix that before I post it.

Portfolio Sketches

Here be some skeches from my 2nd mock portfolio.

Here are some drawings of GSG (Gunsling Girl) and August. GSG was a character I designed last year for character design class and August was done this year for my first lip sync.

The top 2 characters are Minami (South) Kyuki & the twins at the bottom left are Venessa and Natalie Doumont all from my comic Silent Tears. The dude who is obiously in pain is Khän from an old story of mine Cursed. (He is currenently being cursed in this shot).

All charatcers on this page are from my comic Silent Tears. Top left is Mark Stagger, top right is kid Minami, bottom left is Kayla Connery and bottom right in Minami.

Life Drawing Again

Well it's about time I uploaded this thing. Here are some of my updated life drawing portfolio pages. This wont be my final product, but it's coming along. More of my second term mock porfolio will be up here soon.

This one speaks for it's self; heads hands and feet.

Long poses.

Short Guestures.

Character guestures.

Layouts

Some layout pages for my mock portfolio.

This is my best layout so far. Worked really hard on this too.

Storyboard Pages

These were some pages of storyboard panels for my mock portfolio.

This was the storyboard for my 10 second Flash short. We never got to animate that. Too bad.

The animatic on YouTube (it has a newer version, revised. That version is the second post on this blog, of February 2009) link

Part of the un-revised Silent Tears storyboard, done compleatly in Japanese. (It has since been revised and had a style change). Parts of that will be posted later.

The animatic on YouTube: Silent Tears Animatic
The revised animatic on You Tube: Silent Tears Revised

One of the first storyboards I ever did. This was a piece of my part for our groups radio play, based on the 6Teens style.

Life Drawing

Here are some pages from my portfolio, life drawing pages that is. This is of coarse not my final portfolio. This was a mock one for class done in January. A better one will be posted later.

The Card

An animatic for my 10 second shot for flash class. (Yes I do both voices).

But why does the dudes voice sound guyish if ye be a girl? Well cause I adjusted the pitch on it that's why. ^^
