Tamara is Here!!!!

Tamara is here to Visit! I picked her up at the airport and we went for dinner at a place that serves a sandwich called "The Anaconda." It's a burger with bacon, lettuce, and tomato served between two grilled cheese sandwiches.

This was right when we got The Anaconda.

This was just upon finishing the Anaconda. We definitely look fatter.

This is a nicer photo of out post Anaconda selves.

Tam's first Canadian Money!! Now she is a sleepy monkey...

Brittany Walk Cycle

This week we wee assigned a walk cycle in 3D Animation. I downloaded this rig ofline and used her to create a sassy walk!

Baby Beluga!

For this Animation assignment, we went to the Vancouver Aquarium and studied the Beluga's so that we could take animation criteria and make them move believably.

Here's the jump we had to do for Term one Animation. I spiced mine up a bit for the end of term 1 presentation...

Female Anatomy Sculpt

We had even LESS time for this than we did for the male, and this one had to be a SPECIFIC person. We were given a directory of anatomy references and had to sculpt a particular lady. I got Renata and, although you don't have references, you'll have to trust that I did a good job...

Male Anatomy Sculpt

Male anatomy sculpt with no skin. We only had a couple of days to do this.

Curtis P-40 Warhawk

We had to model a WWII airplane...

*Admittedly, not my best work, but you have to pick and choose when you have so many assignments and so little time.

Here's What I've been doing so far...

We had to choose a super hero from a list of orthographic drawings, and build, rig, bind, and weight them. I chose dottie...

Here is Dottie's Range of Motion Test...
