Another one, with a graphics tablet

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

Okay so basically I was deciding whether I wanted to get a new setup for animation. I was looking at animation desks, and graphics tablets to decide whether or not I would go paperless. It seems like it’s kind of becoming the rage now, 2d animation, but done completely digitally. In any […]

A new one.

I decided to redo it, to make him a little taller… it looks okay but there’s a part that looks like it’s jerking and i’m not sure why.
Edit:
I could possibly fix that first one, but I decided after reading some of the Animator’s Survival Kit by Richard Williams that I’d have a try at a […]

General Figure rotation

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

I decided to make 8 frames showing a standing rotation. It’s not perfect, but it will do, as I needed to be able to see how the figure would face in each direction as an aide to animating the walk cycles. Also I will probably just need 8 standing poses, but I will […]

Fade In - Back in business

Monday, August 27th, 2007

Thanks to Mr. Stephen Stair, I have a new location for my blog. Hopefully when the name servers propagate through the internet this post will come up and you won’t even know the difference.
Give him a round of internet applause! ;-)
He’s a fellow programmer, with his own blog there in the friends list.

Fare thee well

Looks like my hosting is going to go down for good, and so I don’t know how long the blog will be here. I’ll have to either restart or restore the whole database and all on a new webhost, which most likely will cost money. In any case thanks you few who actually […]

Tricky stuff when embedding youtube videos –

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Hopefully this will work. If you see the video in the following post, just leave a comment. You DO NOT NEED to play the video, it’s quite embarrassing as it is. But I was having a problem embedding youtube videos — I guess wordpress has this problem of mangling the tags. […]

Back up for a bit.

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Apparently there were some issues on my host that caused the whole web server to be taken down.  From what I understand they’re going to upgrade stuff.  But the admin was kind enough to put my blog back up temporarily.
In any case as far as my game goes.   I was putting in extra hours […]

I doubt anyone is reading now, but what the hey right?

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

I’m going to get back into Enchanted Lands, and probably finished the 100 hour challenge, since it’s documented i merely pick up where I left off.
I figure I need to finish one of my projects, and this one I feel strongly about.  Oh sure i’ll still work on some animation and stuff for hypno-joe, but […]

It’s been a while

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

There probably nobody reading right now, and I don’t blame you.  I don’t post you don’t read.  Well my top secret project is almost done now.  The contract jobby that i’m under NDA for.  And i’m going to try to get back to some regular schedule.
You know me, always trying the schedules.  My new one […]
