Life Drawings and Such

So here are some drawings done in my Life Drawing class. They range from caricatures - my favorite of which is currently in my teachers possession for grading, I'll upload it later - to exercises in movement, to standard life drawings.

Look at them if you'd like. Hell, look twice even. But don't you dare look a third time.

Some Excitingly Good Pencil Tests

No, they're not mine. I said they were excitingly good didn't I?

We were lucky enough to have John Musker come in to Sheridan a few days ago, and
I decided to record the lecture. I'm still trying to get the whole thing ready to upload, but in the meantime I've uploaded a particular segment of his 2 hour lecture.

Here are some pencil tests from Glen Keane (and at least one or two other animators I'm sure) for the "Part
of your world" sequence from The Little Mermaid, as well as early tests from Eric Goldberg for Aladdin.


Enjoy!

Sketch Dump

Here are some sketches that reside in my sketchbook - bad drawings and all. Thought it would be cool to upload full pages instead of only select drawings.

These vary from concepts and rough drawings for assignments, to my own studies outside of school.

                                     

Winter 2013 Animation Reel

So this is my current demo reel. It's very tough to crank out some solid CG animation with a full time school schedule keeping me busy.

Just some naked people I drew...

So here are some of the things I draw in life drawing. The majority of that class is spent drawing my figures so caricatured that my teacher probably hates me. It's not my fault though, it's a disorder. 

Expression Model Sheet

Here is the latest assignment in my character design course here at Sheridan. I'm actually having so much more fun in this class than I am in animation class, interestingly enough.

Anyway the assignment was to create a model sheet exploring the expressions of your character, based on their personality.

My character is meant to be an over the top, spoiled, fun loving pretty girl.
 

This is also my first time really diving deep in exploring how to draw an appealing female character. It's a very difficult, yet rewarding process.
