Dont mess with mother nature

Here’s what I think we can expect worldwide within a few decades. BBQ and Aprés ski.

Sketchcrawl Ghent !

Well it was fun, it opened my eyes to real sketching, something I haven’t done that much of. Here are some drawings from yesterday:

 

 

Here we go !!!!!!!

Finally we started our short, we only have 6 weeks to do 1 minute and a half of animation, but those weeks are gonna be sooooooo much fun. Still in animatic fase but tommorow we’ll have all our planning done and by the end of the week it’s “animation-time”.

Here’s an afternoon sculpt of one of the characters, I hope time allows for the other two characters but I highly doubt it:

Chicken Little 1943

From IMDB: “Produced as a propaganda short during WWII, warning audiences not to believe anti-American propaganda. Originally the film was to have more direct references to the war -Foxey Loxey would have read from “Mein Kampf”, the chicken’s graves would have been marked by swastikas - but Walt Disney decided to keep the film generic so that it would not become dated after the war”

Youtube ( Cool thing is that it includes the animators name like Kahl, Kimbal, Ollie, etc):

Eric Goldberg Notes

Here are some notes from Eric Goldberg, he was the animation supervisor on the genie in Aladdin I think.

Have fun animating
