Shadow boxing development

So I started this new animation two days ago. Have just finished the final blocking stage.
Only a week left until the final deadline and this needs to be ready for my showreel so will have to finish it off in the next couple of days!

Showreel first draft

First version of my showreel - to be updated after the major project is over.

Major Project

So there wont be much CG work being uploaded here for the next few months - if any at all(!) - because pre production has now started for our uni major project!

I will be uploading some initial designs/sketches of development and will also try and get into the habit of uploading regular observatory sketches from around Cardiff.

CG stuff will return around May/June time along with my first fully rendered showreel!!! :D

Lighting and Compositing

Final part of our lighting and compositing project.

The aim is to take a CG object and make it look real when placed in a photographed environment.

One of the sets was taken outside in Cardiff and the other was taken of my desk indoors.

Lighting and Compositing Exercise

Part Two of our lighting project.

We were given the CG room with three model balls and were asked to adjust the settings to make them into three different materials - glass, metal and a glowing ball.

Hand Model Lighting Setup

Part One of my lighting and compositing project for uni.

The project aim was to take the hand model done previously and set it up in a CG studio light environment.
