Life Drawing

Today was the first Life Drawing I have done since I completed my film on Tuesday.  I had a great time!:

My Little Guy

Raiden was watching a kids' show about doctors. He said "I like doctors."  I said "Do you want to be a doctor when you grow up into a man?"  He said - "No, no, no.  I am going to be a teacher."  This is the first I have heard of this - my 2 1/2 year old boy gets more complex every day!
These are some of his first paintings on the computer:

What a Beach

This background put my production on stand-still.  For some reason it just felt like I couldn't draw anymore!!!!  Finally I got back to my design senses and have been on a roll ever since.

Sound Assignment

This was an assignment for my sound class with Ben Huff.  We were asked to play around with ProTools and make all new sound for a video, focussing on foley.  I used a video that my sister created that I just love.  This project is really goofy and fun.  There are flaws, but I had so much fun with it I want to share it here.  Check out the original video that my sister made which is amazing through this: vimeo link or through her website at: clarkinia.com

And now here is the sound project I did:

Workin' Night and Day

Story Boards

Here is the storyboarding so far for my movie this year.  The first one is complete.  The second one is the entire film, but it is missing a lot of boards and needs to be cleaned up.  I clean them up so much because I need to think of the visuals of the film.  It just seems to be the way I like to work.  I have many rough passes of things like line rhythms throughout the film and character placement, but before I can really decide on a shot I need see and develop the look of it.
