My Senior Movie.

After wading through the bureaucracy of UC Davis and convincing a number of department heads that when broken down into its essential components, a student film should be honored as a senior project and honors thesis; my four partners and I pulled together this film. It was a very difficult process as UC Davis, of last year, had no department focused in animation or industry art of any kind. However, as I mentioned by convincing several departments that this was a worth while project, we we’re able to assemble the pieces of the puzzle that would allow this student film to happen. From there, with very little real world experience, but a lot of drive we made The Tale of Eighywahn’s Canard.

Here is the link.

Markers


Markers are a wonderful tool for concept art. They are fast as lightning and you can keep a big pile of quick marker sketches all over the desk allowing you to, at a glance, pick colors and design you'd want to push forward to a cleaner piece.

Here are 2 marker doodles from yesterday.
