I don't think i've ever shared my BLUE Eye Samurai season 1 storyboard work here on on BLUEsky, a scene that is very BLUE in both color palette and mood. I'll probably post more, since this was the last official thing I worked on when i was with netflix before moving onto Invincible season 2

Periodic reminder that Animation is not a children’s genre… It is a MEDIUM to communicate ideas visually, for EVERYONE!

Monica Lagrange went for a super unique approach in her January pose cycle entry. Amazing stuff! I'd have never thought to animate it in this way.

If you want to get involved in February's pose cycle challenge check the post linked below for details:

So dope!
For Pixar’s WIN OR LOSE series (Feb 19), we created new face technology that allowed us to push our character expressions to new limits. By making the mouth, nose, and ear’s free-floating, animators could move facial features almost anywhere! #pixar #disney #comedy #winorlose #disneyplus #animation

Did you know you can use the translation of transforms to drive curves in Maya? It's a clean method that avoids deformers like clusters, and is really easy to set up #rigtip

Flow was made entirely with Blender and rendered in real time with EEVEE. We didn't use a renderfarm. The final render was done on my PC. There was no compositing, all the colors were tweaked and adjusted using shaders.

what's cool is that he filmed his own reference for this shot, but then just chose the keys to print off and then use as pose ref. Essentially handling blocking

depending on the shot dialogue syncs up with the acting, so you use those as milestones but if not I leave it til last lol
