Towards the end of the summer this year, I was part of a small animation team whose purpose was creating a short film for the Project 21 Film Festival; a Festival that challenges filmakers to produce a film in 21 days. A friend of mine, Simon Stahl, was the director on the project, which is how I got involved in the first place. He's a member of the popular online animation school Animation Mentor, and so most of the team consisted of AM members, with a few outsiders including myself. I served as an animator, technical director, lighting TD, and render wrangler for the duration of the project. The story is basically a neurotic guy who has a clap-activated light in his bedroom, and a noisy neighbor whose television is causing complications with his sleeping arrangements. Below is my shot from the film.
We had about 2 weeks for animation, and an additional week for lighting, rendering, and working out miscellaneous problems. I'm not completely satisfied with my shot, but I think it turned out allright for the purposes of the film. Which, by the way, ended up winning Best Animation in the festival, so how about that! So there you have it, actual new animation to show on my blog! Goodness! If I'm not careful I might just actually post new drawings here too!! That would be something!
