notes from underground

It’s about time I put something resembling an animation reel up here, so here’s a short reel I’ve cut together:

Animation Reel, Fall 2007

This has no sound, but since I originally updated it I have replaced the out-dated source footage for the knight segments with final renders, cleaned up timing, added captions and put it on youtube!

I’d rather have done a better job, but something’s better than nothing, in this case! Character segments modeled and rendered in Autodesk Maya (Alias, back then), all else done in Maxon’s Cinema 4D. I love Maya’s character tools, and want to learn to leverage that program’s scripting and particle capabilities, but Cinema is so much easier to model in! Hehe. Total personal bias, I also like the flexibility of their NPR Renderer.
