AM Class 3- Week 4 Assignment

AM Class 3- Week 3 Assignment

Week 3 and it's time to turn in our shot in final form. Wish I had some more time to work on this. We get a week less to work on this shot. Hopefully I have a good live critique with my mentor and I  can do the revisions on my own time.

AM Class 2- Week 11 & 12 Assignment

For week 11 I submitted my final Dancing Stewie. I really needed to fix the timing on the arm swings and alot of the action. I think I bit off more then I could chew.

AM Class 2- Week 9 Assignment

This week I put my animation on 2's just to lock down the movements.  My mentor sugguested to put it to the music to make sure it follows it.
