Lego Mario runs amok!

My third year animation final for SVA. Took me a long time to finish and I would like to thank all those that helped me on it XD. I CAN COUNT THEM WITH MY FINGERS! ON ONE HAND! LILI, KATE, and MARIA. THANKS A BUNCH ROSES AND KISSES . . . ew.

Anyways enjoy over my blood, sweat, and tears.

Please visit my journal for more information!

This is the finished version of my second-year animation project I've done as student at Lucerne university of applied sciences and arts (Department for Animation) in Switzerland.

As a result of a cooperation between our school and Cartoon Network Germany we had to create short animations that can be used as program fillers/ident. It will be aired this summer on Cartoon Network Germany. We had the option to create own characters or adapt some from the CN Universe and come up with a small story that is about sports and not longer than 20 seconds.

The goal was to learn the creation of an animated film from A-Z that includes.

- Collecting ideas for the story
- Draw a storyboard
- Create an animatic (tests for animation/sound timing)
- Make a layout
- Character design
- Animation tests
- Animation cleanup
- Sound (recording and editing)

I'm pretty content with the result and I've learned a lot about the different steps in a production.

I had the right to use all characters/sounds appearing in this film. The copyright for the characters (Dexter, Bloo, Buttercup) goes to Cartoon Network.

The logo animation at the end was NOT created by me and is © Cartoon Network too.

Programs Used:
TV-Paint Animation (Actual Animation)
Photohop CS5 (Backgrounds)
Adobe After Effects CS4 (Compositing)
Final Cut Pro (Final Output)
Pro Tools (Sound Design)

Thanks for watching!

Hello!

(EDIT) - Hey guys, the response to this film has been incredible, I really appreciate it! Over 33,000 views! If you enjoyed this and you want to find out more info on my upcoming feature film 'SAFEHOUSE' please follow me on Twitter! The link is here - [link]



So here is a one minute film I made for the Friends of The Earth one minute film competition. It was shortlisted into the final ten. It is very different to my previous film but I hope you still enjoy it.



The film took about three days to make and a lot of pastels!

The brilliant music is the work of this dude -

Try to view it as 720p? thanks guys~ For the biggest resolution, i could only upload it onto vimeo (dA had trouble converting my big resolutioned file)

~~~~~~~~

So here it is xD;; my final year thesis. I hope you guys will like it .

Music composed by Paul Levasseur for this film.
You can find Paul's bio here: [link]

i'm really nervous about uploading it here Dx don't judge me too harshly~~ Hope you guys like it >A<


ps.
If you want to download this, note me privately and i will send you a link to a private mediafire. I don't want this uploaded anywhere else by other people. Thanks .

pps. The reason this was very short was because our school had a 1 minute cut-off limit this year for Industry Day, so we either had to cut our story into 1 minute anyways or we could just make a 1 minute film :3. That said, it still took me around 4-5 months of slaving away though "orz.

Here's something that might answer some of your questions regarding the process


my other works:

This was completed in about half a semester as my final project for Animation 1 at Rennsellaer Polytechnic Institute.
It's my first serious attempt at doing anything complex in Maya.

The goal of the project was to emphasize gesture and animation of humanesque forms. Any critique on quality of animation or things that could be added would be appreciated.
(PS: I do realize it's too dark. For some reason uploading on Deviantart kills the video quality and darkens it slightly, so that the secondary prenumbra on the spotlights disappears. It's unfortunate, but I can't find a way to fix it as of yet.)

All credit for the music goes to Joel Nielsen, who was awesome enough to let me use some of his uploaded demo-tracks as background. I think it adds a lot to the piece.

Something I animated for Tomska back in October~

Right, lets see if this dA film thing works

today i received this note in my inbox from the help desk:

"We have received some Help Desk inquiries from some of your watchers who are experiencing issues with not receiving your notifications concerning your deviations. This is a known issue that we have been working on and need your help in order to eliminate this issue. I have been asked by deviousTechnology to contact you and ask that you please submit 2-3 deviations (no scraps). They will be monitoring the submissions to figure out where the failure is occurring."

so, i figured it was high time to upload my animation!

this was my graduation project for my 4 year animation course at the utrecht school of the arts. it's a long commercial for a fictional company that i came up with, called Trichrome. i made it in TVpaint and Adobe After Effects.

i used the annotations to put in concept art for certain scenes, although one of them ("what is this") was just a test to see what annotations actually were. sadly i can't delete it haha!
