Workflow Workshop Pt.2

Hope you guys don't mind if I post the next part early! Didn't want y'all to wait till next workshop date to see the continuation. We'll do the next part live together though. Let me know if you guys have any questions!

Lesson in Texture

Here's a quick highlight of some of the things we covered in the workshop. Remember to find the balance between adding texture but also focusing on clarity/simplicity.

Texture Workshop Recording

Here is the recording of the texture workshop! Enjoy!

Texture Demo Playblast

This is the outcome from today's workshop/demo! Recording of the workshop will be uploaded shortly.

Spider-verse Workflow Process

Here's a quick workflow process explanation of what I did to achieve this test. Let me know if you have any questions!

Building Specificity

Reminder that you only have seconds to grab the audience attention and to get your ideas across. You’re setting yourself up for a difficult time if your character has nothing to do but stand/sit there just delivering a line. Give them something to do! Where are they? How they get there? What’s the purpose of the moment here? Is the character trying to vent? Does it matter who the secondary character is? If so, what’s their relationship? Is ...

Question!

I love to hear any struggles or any animation topics you are trying to get a better understanding in. I’ll try my best to cover them in any recorded demos or materials that I post here! Hope you guys are doing well! I’ll post our next workshop session date soon.

Lesson on Performance

Just another refresher on performance. Spend enough time going through all these important variables for your characters.

Workflow Demo (master study - tangled)

This is a demo recently done in my mentorship class. I took a clip from Tangled and tried to recreate it like a master study. Feel to practice like this (obviously not use it as your own work) to learn how to observe and also execute. It's not meant to be a 1-1 frame copy, rather, understanding what choices were made and doing it on your own. Enjoy!

What Makes Up a Good Performance?

This covers some of what we talked about in our last workshop. Remember to answer all questions to your character so you understand the motive/intent for every pose/move.

First post

Hey everyone! I know it’s a small group of us right now (but that’s kinda nice too), I’m really excited to have you guys here. What’s cool about this is that, this is forever evolving. It can really be shaped by what you guys want to learn about and want to see. I’ll be putting a poll on here soon to finalize a date where we can decide which day/time would best for our first live workshop. Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
