I'M FAMOOSE!

Nah, not really.
BUT!

I did win the Animation Division of the Fairbanks Film Festival!
I got a big trophy and prize and I felt very special :3

I even got interviewed and a piece written in the paper about me, which you can read here:

I'll have to look into which other film festivals I should apply to, I would love to see if Griz of Oz can get recognition elsewhere in the country- I know it is lacking visually in some areas, but I feel the animation and story is solid.

So who knows, I'll keep my fingers crossed :)

I need to go clamour and thank Eddie Rosas, for helping me come up with the story and characters in the first place, back in 2011.... Without him I don't know where I'd be. He is an awesome, awesome dude.

Animation Mentor Progress Reel Term 4

I know I never posted Term 3, shhhh..... :D

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND THE LAST 4 MONTHS OF SHENANIGANS!

I.... too much happened.

There was this cacophony of BFA thesis, Honor's Capstone thesis, my CGI modelling/rigging/animating job, AnimationMentor work, and commission work on the side...

And somewhere in there I am pretty sure I lost all my sanity.
But now I'm out on the other side and I don't know how I survived but I did and I'm very glad of that. 

So after the jump is a massive BALH;FIOEGHHH of images, from my BFA, from frustration and anxiety, from procrastination... (all of the above really).

I hope you enjoy. I'll be posting my BFA animation later.... (it's 2D and about 3.5 minutes long)

I'll try to post this in roughly chronological order as well.....
