A Couple of Posters

Over the last week or so between myself and Tom we designed up and coloured a couple of posters for Wulfie. Wulfie can transform between small and big so we based one of the posters as our take on the Stars Wars Episode 1 poster of Anakin. 

Enjoy

Brendan Animation - Waves

Over the last few months I've been working on Brendan and the Secret of Kells with the guys at The Cartoon Saloon and here is some animation from the big storm sequence at the beginning of the film.  The Wave animation, which I was responsible for was produced in Toon Boom and Anime Studio. 

Other animators involved in the scenes are Barry Reynolds, who did the character animation, cleanup in the Kecskemét film, Hungary and Olivia Honan did the fire and smoke animation (in Flash) as Iona burns.

I Want Andy Concepts

Sometimes you just want more.

Below are some "I Want Andy" Concept images from are post-it drawing session. Andy & Derek are striving for a better life than they have. They just want more.

Its a Flash based gallery so just click on the image to cycle through them.

Wulfie Colour Concepts

Below are some colour concept images I did over the weekend, still trying to figure out the character colour separations on Wulfie and wanting to keep the illustration feel.

Wulfie Animation Test

We wanted to do a little animation test for wulfie, to see if we could get the water colour colouring to work and I have posted it below. A fairly successful job I think, although it still has some issues that I feel can be solved on the next test.

For anybody interested, the Pencil animation was done by Tom C, in a programme called Pencil and on the cintiq. Then the movie was taken into Anime Studio and using the pencil animation as the basis re was reanimated and refined and finally the texture applied, oh and the texture was made in Painter Essentials.

Anyway thats how we did it, on to the next test and a little harder animation i think.
