Teaching at the Animation Workshop


Hey all

So I've taken a month out of commercial work to go and teach at the animation workshop in Viborg, in Denmark.

Its a very cool place, im teaching the 1st year 'CG Artist' course its a BA course, and we're currently working on characer modelling and mudbox.

thought i would post some work, so here is a quick turntable of the character i am modelling to teach the class, its a depiction of Peter Parker by artist 'Kizer' from the deviant art forums.

you can check out the website for the animation workshop here: LINK

A Passion for work



Hey all

just wanted to update you all on my latest whereabouts and projects, since January 2009 ive been working at Passion Pictures as a modeller using luxology's MODO. Its always a challenge to have to work with a new piece of software, but it can be rewarding and its definatley a plus on the CV. I have to say Modo is a very nice modelling program, since returning to maya, ive realised how clunky is it. The one thing Modo is missing is a decent 'snap to point' tool.

Anyway, im digressing...Passion Pictures, very cool place, based in London's Soho. They have created some outstanding work including the Gorilla's videos (most of em), the sony bravia bunny adverts, and most recently the compare the meercat adverts (which ive included below)



details of the actual project ive been working on, will be realised soon, so check back here to see what this cool project is! (no info just yet!)

all the best

Adam
