I'm taking two classes this semester, Art 129A - Maya 3d Rendering with Dave Gustlin and Art 115 - Intermediate Animation with Dave Chai. It's raining daves this semester... lol. I was enrolled with Courtney Granner's 117 Visual Development class also but that would have been suicide and all the professors laughed at me and strongly advice against it. Two studio classes max is the going rate these days. We started the semester running; within the first two weeks, we already have a 10 minute animation short and a Rancor turn around and full body low poly count model due. Looks like sleep will be fleeting again for the next three months. I'm just glad I'm in good company...
Here's my Rancor Turn Around done in Photoshop. My first time to draw anything official with my wacom tablet and my first time to do a turn around on any character. Taking John Clapp's 113A when he used to teach it with a bit of perspective helped me alot as far as knowing which parts should line up and understanding the planes in 3D. We will also learn ZBrush in 129A to finish off the model.
A sample of my figure drawing portfolio for my Animation Class. We are to draw 25 figure studies and 25 on location sketches with different themes every week. Well, yesterday they just upped the bid to 100 figures a week so we can get rid of our 10,000 ugly drawings faster... lol. Hopefully it will work for me too. I will be stalking people a lot more this weekend. Happy hunting!
The theme for this week is 'fun in the sun'. I took my pc and wacom tablet to the park near my home and sketched people playing. Drawing with the pen tablet helped me loosen up and not be so caught up with details... I have to try that again... it was fun!
