Time to act!

Aaaahhh, I can finally return to my studies at Animation Mentor! I just had my first Q&A, where I got to meet my class and my new mentor, Jason Martinsen. He has done some awesome work, including Iron Man 2, Horton Hears A Who! and Ice Age 2 and 3. Check out his Demo Reel!
Fantastic, isn't it?
I'm really happy to be back at this inspiring place, inhabited by great folks. Looking back, taking my 3 months break was definetely the right decision. I could work on my body mechanic shots and take it a little easier for a while and now I'm back and fully charged for all that acting goodness that's coming up now.
That's right, acting! The subject for class 4 is "introduction to acting" and we're getting to do a pantomime shot as well as a monologue shot (without facial animation though, that's going to be done in class 5). So lots to learn, lots of work, lots of excitment coming up!

Talking about lots of work; I'll probably go dark for a while now and won't be able to post as often. You wouldn't believe how time flies at Animation Mentor. Must be some different time-dimension-thing or something, you literally sit down and start working on your shot and before you know it, four weeks have passed.
Well but anyway, I'll give my best to keep you guys updated on a more or less regular basis about Animation Mentor or work related news.

Allright, let's go back to planning that pantomime shot now.

Cheers
C
