More Balls...

Had some extra time so managed to get a more dynamic version of the 3 balls falling. I let the beach ball drop first this time so that everything else in the scene reacts to it. Had a bit of fun with it as I had already got the basics of the exercise down.

We also did a pendulum exercise, showing secondary action on the hanging chain. It reminded me of an obstacle from a simple game so I added in a buzz saw for extra effect.

Life: In the real world

Now that college is done n dusted its about time i went n did some real work. Starting this week I'm doing an internship with Giant Creative in Dublin. http://www.giant.ie/
We're currently going back to basics so I should be able to post up a few exercises over the next two weeks.
First on the list is a combination of 3 differently weighted balls interacting with each other. A football, beach-ball and cannon ball.

Fun exercise, it's years since I've done any bouncing ball stuff, but we gotta get the basics right before we can go on.
Stay tuned for more updates...

Back to work

An injury ridden summer behind me, it's time to get back to work. I have to design a character for our short movie this year, little bit out of my comfort zone but seem to be getting the hang of the Wacom tablet
