(79) Rocket Boy Update

Here's a second version of my Rocketboy idea. I spent a bit more time on this, this time.
The first Rocketboy script I wrote is here.

I've enlisted the help of a character designer, Chris Boyd ( [link] ) who was very interested and very helpful.

He seems quite enthusiastic about my little project, and was generous enough to whip up a concept for his take on Rocketboy.

At the Jalloo ( http://jalloo.net/ ) animation festival, here in Miramichi, last week, we had a nice woman come in to talk to us from Teletoon.

She discussed their pitching guidelines and criteria, and I'm seriously considering submitting a Rocketboy pitch.
The odds of it getting picked aren't super, but, it's worth a shot.

We'll see how it goes.

-Update-
Just letting it be known, I've submitted a Rocket Boy pitch sheet to Teletoon.

(78) 25 Expressions of Travis

A little side project for one of our classes was to create a little character to go with this expression sheet.

I should've had a character in mind, or at least thought of a definitive look, but I ended up doing a...garbled..version of myself.
Did them up rather quickly with a blue pencil, then worked 'em over with a black pen to make 'em pop.

(77) Subway Warp Pan

For our final Staging project, we had to create a warped pan.
So I did.

I coloured it up with a blue animation pencil, then tweaked it in photoshop CS5.

That's all for now.
