Car rig

My car rig is now done, thanks to Laurens Corijn for his tutorials. Now I need to setup some materials and it will be ready to be animated...
It has a suspension system, drift control, steering, automatic wheel rotations (separate in front and back), a momentum controller as well as options to open the doors, trunk and hood.

And a quick little test animation:

Spirelli

I started working on an animated short called Spirelli. It's about pasta coming to life... :) On this project I plan to make use of some new techniques, like bendy limbs, dynamics, particles, and maybe some matchmoving. Let's see where this goes :p

And the band plays on...

Yo! School has kicked off again, we're still gonna be creating awesome things this year (woohoo!). Among other things we'll be seeing lipsync, acting, animal behaviour in our Animation class, and we're going to play around with particles and dynamics, and rendering in passes for post production. I feel sad the end is getting near :(. 

On another note I participated for the first time in the 11SecondClub competition! Critiques are hard but true and I feel I'm going to be learning a lot more if I keep participating. Check out my entry here:
