Messing around with Motion, I came up with this cool animation for Vanishing Point Pictures. Check it out:

New Computer

Just got a new Apple MacBook Pro Laptop(Intel 2.16ghz dual core and 2gb RAM) for school and Final Cut Pro. Hopefully I can transition over from my PC to it. So far I have Final Cut Studio Pro, Macromedia Studio 8, and Aperature on it. I am yet to get Adobe CS2 on it.

Animation Done

Well it took 2 days to do 5 seconds of footage. I think it looks pretty good. Each frame was hand drawn.

Animation Project

M.M. Rempen and I are working on a quick 5 second animation project to see what we can do. The method is taking raw footage and tracing over every frame by layer (outline, color, background) then compositing them all into one. It's looking great. Here is a preview:

I will post the final animation once it is done being colored.

Self Portrait

Just messing around with photoshop I did a self portrait of myself:

Will soon be working on an animation with the same style with M.M.Rempen. He taught me the teqnique.

Tent Rocks

After a year long drought of photography I just recently took some pics at the Tent Rocks in New Mexico. All are posted to kick of the current! Also these are the first set of pictures taken with my new Canon Digital Rebel 8mp camera :)
