END-YEAR Showreel


End-Year Exam

A year has passed at the Animation Workshop and to finish it we had a week of exam. One of assignments was to do five seconds of animation from the storyboard below. The Sultan wakes up suddenly after a fly introduced itself in his mouth. He panics and looks around, searching for the culprit. Lots of fun again to go through all the animation process. I really feel at ease with it and more inspired to push my limits and look for doing new animated performances.

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*

I like blogs

I found myself creating 2000 different blogs lately... A list imposes itself

I began it in 2012 right after the end of my semester at the Drawing Academy
A kind of diary where you can find lots of my work from last year. 

I created this tumblr to share some of my inspirations. I try to upload it when  my desktop is  litteraly crammed with pictures.

My last "creation". I had lots of drawings and pictures I wanted to show you but also for me it was a nice and easy way to look back at my work in a nutshell. Tumblr fount its way here. JavaJuliette is my pot-pourri.

This was my portfolio before  applying to the Animation Workshop.


I am already sure I won't stop here...*
