Here is my latest animation I did for the 11secondclub.com September animation competition.  I finished 27 out of 206.  Learned a lot from doing this animation test.  Changed my animations process a bit and I’m pretty happy with the outcome.  I wanted to create a much more cartoony feel, a bit of over acting and broad movement.

I’m hoping some of you can give me some feedback on it and help me improve this shot.

I recently participated in the 11secondclub.com aminaiton competition for the month of September and ended up coming in 24th place out of 143.  I received a some good feedback on it and when i have more time, ill revisit the animation and fix a few things.  I wasnt 100% happy with it when it was finished for the compitition, but i just didnt have any more time to work on it.  Hopefully i can finish it off one day and add it to my demoreel.

I was recently asked to do an animation test at my workplace, Nelvana.  They liked the test so they offered to put me into the animation department, and I accepted.  So now I no longer work at the TD department of Nelvana, and will be shifted over to the other side of the building and will being working along side the other animators. I am very happy to be shifting over to the animation department, and I owe a big thanks to my boss who recommended me.

I will see if I am allowed to post any playblasts of any animation I do at work.  I doubt that it will be allowed, but I will find out.  Check back for updates.

Hmm, im bored, so what should I say, lets see……. Ok, heres a little bio about me:  I was born June 18, 1980, blah blah blah, stuff happened and now im here writing on my webpage, how exciting.  Oh, I know whats exciting, I got a new Ipod Nano, it was a gift from my mom.

Ok, here is what I am up to now, i currently work at Nelvana, in Toronto.  I’m reading The Illusion of Life.  I’m playing Madden 2005.  I’m always working on new animation pieces, this one will be a short lipsync from a line in Jerry Maguire.  Stay tuned for updates.
