We've been working on our pantomime shot (remember the smoker?) and the monologue shot and now finally we're tackling the dialogue shot. I'll be sparing you all the weekly updates, but for now, I'll present you the finished monologue exercise:
Pretty sweet, hmm? Guess this is easily the best piece of animation I've produced so far!
So there are only four weeks to go until my Animation Mentor Journey comes to an end and no demo reel in sight... With Kenny Roy providing so much great input there's really like no time to apply it to all the shot's I've done so far.
When school's over I'll be taking a short break and then get to work on some more shots. First of all I'll be finishing up the Vader Shot and then I want to come up with one or two new body mechanic shots. The acting shots I have so far are quite physical and the body mechanic shots I've done so far don't really show something that isn't executed in the other ones already.
So I want to do something really extreme, like climbing a tree or something along these lines.
So my plan is to have a sparkling shiny reel ready by the end of this year and then start looking for a job. Well, we'll see what's going to happen, wish me luck;)
It's probably going to take another four weeks until my next post.
When my 18 months of Animation Mentor training are over.
Wow, this is going way too fast!
Take care
Christoph
