This Neigbourhood Is Boring – An Emotional Experiment

Animation | August 21, 2009

I just started up an album on Vimeo called “Emotional Experiments“. Neil was talking about starting one up and I’ve been itching to shoot and edit my own videos for a while. But as we all know, committing time to any self-motivated project can be tough to do sometimes.

It isn’t a masterpiece, but its an exercise on what I can shoot, edit, composite, color-correct and encode in about 4-5 hours. I didn’t use the steadycam, so the footage is pretty shaky. Shot on an HVX200 and used Final Cut, After Effects and Motion.

Check it out. I added a little surprise.

Cinema 4D Music and Motion Test

Animation, Design | August 20, 2009

Here are a couple motion tests I did a while back using Maxon Cinema 4D. I’ve been using C4D whenever I need to dive into building anything that requires 3D rendering or animation. I love the program and it’s been fairly easy to pick up due to the fantastic GUI. The star of the show has got to be the stacking layer system, allowing users to easily add modifiers, shaders, properties, etc to objects and keep track of them through the intuitive tree view.

Count Leo Reimagined

Design | July 17, 2009

countleo_int_s

My wife and I decided we were going to check out the Harry Potter series (finally). We’ve just watching the first one and we’re planning to check out a couple more this weekend. But the reason we really started to get interested in it was because of the way the new Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince looks. It looks like a lot of fun and the series seems to have really matured into something very cool.

I was also inspired to create an updated image of the Rival Schools mascot, Count Leo. He really just started off as simple vector illustration, but I had  envisioned a more realistic representation. I’m planning to create a whole roster of humanoid-animals with snooty dispositions. Download the wallpaper and iPhone poster here
