Hybrid Creature.

This is my process design for my Hybrid Creature. This shows from a really terrible start to an awesome finish in my opinion i am so proud of this :D

 Mind Map.

 Really bad sketches haha!

 Basic Roughs.

 Line Work.

 The bones of the beast!

FINAL!

Elemental Creature.

This is the process design of my Elemental Creature. It is a half lion, half wolf and the lion is fire and the wolf is ice. So this is a real interesting choice of negative matches to make a mystical protector and guardian. Plus i was going through this oriental phase lately haha!
Here is planning to finish :)

 Final choice of ideas.

 Made some adjustments and colour.

 Front view with colour.

 Line work of final illustration.















FINAL ILLUSTRATION!

SFX Practice.

This is a bunch of different special effects we were asked to animate. Film of smoke, Water Ripples, Dust Cloud, Campfire, and a Thunder Storm. Out of all these i found the storm to be the easiest one. Tips for making this would be: Digitally: (do rain on twos) Draw out a bunch of straight lines holding the shift key (be warned some lines slightly curve) draw them all across the canvas, press F6, then Q, Select all the lines (making sure you have onion skins on) hold Shift, Drag them down slightly while also adding more lines above the ones you dragged down to keep it consistent. Repeat this a few times till it cycles. If you want the rain to go diagonally then just click Edit All Frames, draw the bar over all your frames, press Q and select all your frames, hover the mouse over the edge line of the box at the top till u see two horizontal arrows, click and drag left to right to screw your rain making it come from a diagonal angle (you may need to re position your rain so it fits the whole canvas.)
(do lightning on ones) Now draw a thin lightning bolt on an angle, press F7, turn on onion skin, add a slightly bigger bolt with more forks, F7 again and start to dissipate the bolt and add a little more forks to the ends, keep adding dissipation till  the bolt is gone. For more effect for the first bolt make the rain and bolt black and the background white, then the rain the colour you had it before as well as the bolt on the next frame then back to black it white and repeat till its back to normal and the lightning is gone. Example below.

Comic Final.

Here is the final colour comic i am so happy with how this turned out!

Comic Inking.

Here is the inked version of my comic before colour :)

Comic Script.

Here is the script for my comic idea.

2 skeletons sitting at a bar on bar stools having beer telling each other bad jokes. First shot: a wide shot from behind
the skeletons as 1. says "Hey wana hear a joke?" 2. says "sure" shows the joke being played out as monsters are playing follow the
leader but eating each other. 1. says "What do monsters play at parties?" 2. says "what?" 1. says "swallow the leader!" side shot
of 2. with his hand on his head sighing with disappointment. 1. leans into the side shot and says "Hey i've got another one" shows a
shot of a digital clock talking to the analogue clock saying 1. "What did the digital clock say to the analogue clock?" 2. *sigh*
"what?" 1. "Look ma no hands!" side shot of 1. laughing and 2. leaving.

Comic Planning.

This is the planning stage to my comic assignment.

SFX Practice: Storm

This one wasn't too hard probably one of the easiest once explained. But flash did complicate things here and there though.

SFX Practice: Film of Smoke.

This one i struggled with at first but figured out a way to make it easier for myself and managed to finish it :)

Intro to dialogue: Mind Map and Thumbnails.

Here is my mind map and thumbnail sketches for the intro to dialogue assignment. I am going with idea 2. I will be attempting it in a 3 quarter view which i find will be very challenging for me but hopefully with some reference photos i should be ok. I do want to do number 3. But i feel it doesn't meet the requirements for this assignment.
