Uni - The beginning!

Ok, to try and highlight the progress of my skills I figure I'll include a small selection of pieces from uni beginning with 1st year, then 2nd, then to my current one, 3rd year.

So, in first year, I was basically introduced to Flash and Maya for the first time. Both of which I remember seemed very daunting, but I was excited to see what I could do!

So here we have the my first attempts at an environment in Maya for my 3D module...

In Flash we had to create an animation, for which I had to animate "brilliant scientist sniffs bright light"......!

I kinda liked this particular concept I did, and so my character was born!

Finial animation can be seen here ...Was a nice introduction to animating in flash, and was especially fun animating the change in facial expression...

Sticking with flash, we also had to produce an "interactive" piece... For some reason I decided to attempt a kinda interactive narrative using little army soldiers ....with my head. Yes, I did paint my face green, and yes, that is a salad bowl on my head, also painted green.







Lastly I had to create an illustration in response to an unpublished script....






1st year in a nutshell! There were a few other modules but I wont bother going through them all for the sake of getting up to speed...
