As I progressed through my course I had to learn about character animation. I was still very much a novice and really needed to put the time in to make somethng I could be proud of. However, here is my effort using stock characters that came with 3DS Max (I think!).
This was a lot of fun to make. I'd never done character animation before so I was quite pleased at the time, but I look back now and cringe a little.
As I progressed through to my second year of this new course I started Maya. I seem to have lost most of my Maya stuff but as part of my final year we did something called Matchmoving using real footage and graphics combined.
I ran out of time so I produced the effort below
After I finished my degree I did a Masters degree in Computer Games Design. This was the only course with any graphics in at that level. Passed that and then did nothing for ten years with all that knowledge. Didn't practice; partly because I couldn't afford the software. I had heard of Blender and tinkered with it but my head wasn't in the right frame of mind and I gave up. Until now. I am just about to finish another job and I need to get started on something that I have had my heart on doing for a long time. My ultimate goal is to produce some amazing short animations and short films with my own music and sound effects. Let's get started.
