Coming 2010

Untouched from Matt Gutpell on Vimeo.

Revised version of my leica, still needs to be tweaked including, the opening shot which I have staged differently, changing the geese in shot 1 and 2 to loons, and playing around with the last 3 shots to get them to work. All for now though.

3rd Year Film

The Auction from Eric Angelillo on Vimeo.

Here's the group film I worked on last year during 3rd year. It was quite the process but overall I thinkt he film turned out pretty good. Now that the film is on the net I might throw up some layouts, paintings and possibly some of my animation from the film.

Royal Winter Fair

Another Great year at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto. Did get a bit of drawing in and this one above was one I did as a commission for a great group of people from Illinois, who I had done another piece for the day before. This year will be my last year attending with Sheridan as I graduate in the spring but I plan on still attending the fair for years to come as I have done since I was little.

Okay so here it is, a little behind on it but it turned out, the leica for my film, this is the first initial rough cut of it, probably tweak certain stuff.

It's done, there's a few small things i would like to fix but I gotta keep moving on.

TONAL DONE?

The tonal of the layout I'm working up.

Long time with no post

just a concept for a layout I'm working up. The cat looks on at the warm glow from the barn while snow falls peacefully.

Finished Rough Animation?

A more finished rough test. I did the effects first pass. I might play around with the dust cloud more but probably gonna start the long arduous clean up process.

Animation Test

Here is the Work in Progres of my Action Analysis. Alot left to do on it.

Work in Progress

Thought I'd post a work in progress of my final colour layout for action analysis. Going for a Bambi type colour scheme. My bear is pretty warm colours so I thought it will pop more on top of a fairly cool bg.

quick colour balance tests

Anyways nothing too crazy, just took each level from the tonal and played around with the colour balance in photoshop to get a general and quick idea of what I'm going for. Still not sure but thought I'd post the progress.

Back to the Woods

New Tonal Study on Revised Layout. Not sure about some things, gonna be fun to paint.

Fair Day 2

A couple of drawings I liked from day 2 at the fair. I also met a really interesting artist who was an older gentleman. We talked for a bit, he critiqued my work, and gave me alot of useful tips. Another successful and enjoying day at the fair.

Linework for a New Layout

Another Layout, slightly rushed, would like to redo and pay more attention to detail.
