Short
It’s been a very long time since I last put fingers to keyboard in an effort to write something for this blog, which admittedly is all my fault. Still trying to find work in a studio in the UK, been involved in a few freelance or volunteer projects in the meantime (mostly doing stuff for my brother, the irritatingly talented Jonny Elwn).
Most recently I’ve had some models back for a short film idea that I’ve been kicking around for a while, and which I’m now pushing forward; will put up some work in progress material before too long I’m sure. Thanks to Adam Dewhirst for getting the models knocked out in the midst of everything else that was going on.
So a short update, but more will be forthcoming. Working my way through Jason Schliefer’s Animator Friendly Rigging at the moment, as I do have very simple characters to rig and hopefully it won’t be massively complicated to do. I also picked up Ryan Woodward’s ‘Thought of You’ in high-definition and the ‘Conté Animated’ book that accompanied the film, which has just made me want to work on my drawing skills far more. Going to put at least an hour a day into that.
So yeah. 2012. Going to be an interesting year.
