Interaction Animation

Lately I had the chance to be taught by Sydney Padua, another great figure in the animation world. She helped us to learn interaction in animation: we had to make two characters hug each other after a expression changing. Our characters were Hoghart from The Iron Giant and the Sultan from Aladdin.

 First of all here are some sheets where I practiced the characters in order to get use to their construction.

Then in order to have an idea of their relation, I posed them next to each other also to check the size relationship. 

Finally came the idea of an interaction. So I thumbnailed my animation in few key poses.

...and here is the animation I came up with. One more time it was a big challenge but I am very glad about the result.

Mister Stan

Two weeks ago at the Animation Workshop, we had the chance to collaborate with 4 directors/students from the french school La Poudrière. They needed our help to do animation tests for their projects which consisted in adapting children books into TV series. I worked under Jeremie's direction with my four classmates Ben, Sofia, Will and Agnete. 

For this animation above I worked with Agnete. I animated, cleant up and colored the dog, Mister Stan, while Agnete did the great animation of the neighbor. It was a real challenge to work with limited animation but also to apply the style of the book to animation. Moreover it was the first time we were working on a project we did not come up with so again, a nice challenge for adaptation. 

Thanks to La Poudrière's students for this great collaboration*

LIGHTS OUT

Mesdames et Messieurs,

I am happy to present the result of a long journey me and my amazing 7 co-workers just ends :

here is our first animated short short film dedicated to 4 to 6 years old children (and older of course) made in 4 weeks. It was an amazing challenge and great adventure to go through. We all learnt a lot from each other and became stronger in terms of organisation, planning and production. I hope you will like it.
