Animation - Intros

     When I started to explore Animation while I was in college, my first idea was to animated an intro animation. By doing so i could explore some simple movements while not working on something story driven.


    My first attempt was with graphite pencil on layout paper. A cleanup was done with Primacolor marker on layout paper. Both were stitched together with Windows Movie Maker

          Originally this blog was built back in the early 2000's to document my journey through college, to follow my dreams in pursuing a career in animation. That was a really long time ago and things have changed alot since then and maybe blogs aren't as relevant in this day and age, as they once were.

I try to approach their roughs like a fly zipping through the space, trying to find some unique views that are maybe not obvious at first. After the thumbnails I moved onto an exaggerated rough floor plan for my space, trying to capture as many rooms as possible in one drawing.     From there I tried to bring my drawing back down to a more grounded representation, but at the same time trying to keep as much of that warped perspective as possible to not loose some of the original drawings charm.            After the thumbnails, rough and concept I then think about a perspective not normally viewed in one of the interior spaces within my main space, in this case the view from an empty toilet paper roll in the bathroom. This was an attempt at a little low brow humor, of a character realizing too late they d...
