So this blog is getting pretty stale with in terms of what the hell I've been doing lately,
so I've decided to keep you posted on what I've been doing lately:

The Toronto Animated Image Society does yearly animation jams. Last year it was monsters. This year, it's chickens! Bock Kaw! Convenient. I'm born on the year of the chicken.
Here's a post of what I'm going to try and capture in a 10 second animation:
It's a self portrait. No really. Ahem. Yeah.
I drew this a few years ago, but I figure this would be a perfect excuse for me to try and attempt to recreate this in animated form. Enough Laziness Jeff! Chess Due Eat! I keep on thinking of ways of mixing 2d and 3d elements and never do it. well this time is different... 10 seconds is doable rite?
10 x 24 frames =240 frames?
I'm thinking of modeling the whole thingamagigger in 3d , animate it, then trace the damned thing over w/ a brush or pen and ink, to give it the crafty hand drawn quality but a strange 3d complexity to it. we'll see how I come up with this:

Apparently Aardman would animate in 3d, then print out each sheet on paper, then work traditional media on it then scan it back in.. Insanely laborous, but BAD FACKIN ASS!
I have LO to NO 2d animation experience so this is going to be a fun test for me.
Now that i think about it, this black ink brush technique is all the rave now with Street Fighter IV and OKAMI using it all over their game. Which is another dream of mine to try and replicate in 3d but i digress. My next post I'll show a screen shot of my 3d model.
PAYCE!
