Figured it'd be time for an update here on this rainy sunday, in the beginning of august, in the lovely country of Denmark - yay!
So, no pictures today, just words. I'm in a pretty creative process right now, working on a short film. The designs are coming along, after a couple of months of agonizing and frustration.
I've started on the storyboarding which I have a pretty ambivalent feeling about. On one side, it's such an amazing tool where you are forced to think about even the smallest detail in a very visual and concrete way.
On the other hand though, it's just so extremely difficult and tough. There is no cheating, no short cuts no nothing. Everything has to be crystal clear and figured out.
But at the end of the day, you just gotta do it. There is no way around it, and a nicely fleshed out storyboard is just invalueble for the rest of the process.
That was it for the short film. On another note, it just got very official that I'm accepted into the bachelor line at the Animation Workshop, so as of september I'm officially a animation student. To celebrate my self (lol!) I decided to buy two books, that I really think will help my.
They are both titled Drawn To Life, one about humans and one about animals. They are based on the learning material that was made availble for the disney animators in the 1980'ths and still today (I think). I cannot wait to get my greasy hands on them, and learn a bit about how to draw for animation.
That's it for now. I might post a small teaser on the storyboard later on, but for now, I'll keep it all off web.
Cheers.
