Retroactive - Animation Exercise I

Here is an animation exercise from the spring/summer assessment 2009, apologies for the playback speed as youtube is playing a 25fps clip at 30fps. I will try to fix this later

Retroactive - Sol Animation I

Here are some rough animation clips from Sol which I handed in for the Spring 2009 assessment, the work I did after this wasn't marked, unfortunately, but I've still got it somewhere I think...

For ease and enjoyment, please loop the animation video files, as they are very short.

And some photoshopp'ed ones. The fire effect on the fourth one was nice I thought, but too much to animate unfortunately.

Moar Horses!

Retroactive - Sol Character Design I

In my second year 10/2008 to 06/2009, I worked as an animator on a graduation film directed by Harry Wormwald. The film is finished now, but as the university still holds the copyright for it, I can't link it here, but I will do in two years when it expires (I think). I did some character design and animation for the film, but my main role was to design and animate the horses (or rather one horse then draw it twice), which I did.

The brief was to design the horse of Helios/Apollo/Sol, and therefore had to be the meanest, most badass sonofabitch of a steed that could totally wipe the floor with those horses the ring-wraiths had. So I did what any character designer would do and turned to my little pony. The one in the field next to uni that is. What did you think I meant?
