Ed’s Feedback #01

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation

This morning I received Ed’s feedback about the blocking we did last week. Overall Ed was content with what we turned in. He said the opening is nice. He gets that the guy is enjoying his sandwich. It looks like it tastes good (Hell yeah, I made myself the meanest Tuna sandwich when I took the reference footage – It was YUM)! The second shot wasn’t clear to him. He said at first it looked like the character heard something, then the facial expressions confused him. It...

Second quick blocking pass

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation

Today, we only had few hours to try and push the first blocking pass we did over the past couple of days. We shaved the first 13 seconds of the animation and I think it works better now.

We also cut out two camera angles, it felt like there were too many cuts and it was hard to follow the actions. After speaking to the guy who runs the master class...

A very very rough blocking

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation

First blocking pass is done.

As always, any feedback or critiques are most welcome. Thanks for stopping...

Please have a look at the video below and let me know if it’s easy to understand what is going on or not.

Ed Hooks Acting for Animators Master Class

Posted by Avner Engel in Animation

Great news! I enrolled into the Ed Hooks Pre-Masterclass. In the next following weeks I will be working one on one with Ed on a scenario he assigned Luke (my classmate) and I. The master class will be held towards the end of September in Melbourne. We were given three scenarios to choose from. At the moment it seems like we are either going to animate a take with a character eating a sandwich at 2am and suddenly there is a knock on the door or alternatively smoke is coming from under the...
