New job!

I have been working to Mokko Studio for a month by now.
I am lighting a show about dinosaurs for Discovery Chanel and I am learning a lot.
We use Maya 2009 and there is some new stuff there that are quite interesting.

I am still continuing another contract part time at home.
For this one i am doing the lipsync and facial animation for kids show.

All this is keeping me quite busy.

Modeling Bibo

Here is the first version of Bibo now in 3D.

He has no face for now because I am still thinking about it.

Any comments or suggestions for him would be appreciated.

First XSI animation

Well, I have just added a new card up my sleeve by learning XSI.
Here is my first animation.
A simple walk cycle to start.

Bibo

I made this little sculpture last week.

There is not much details on it, but it is only the second sculpture I made in my life.

Please be indulgent!

I have already start the modeling. I plan to post every step of the 3D creation of this creature.

Any comments will be appreciate!

Rovio

It has been a long time I know.

But here is my first job! yeah!

It was a short contract I did in june of 3 weeks at Twist Image. It's a web site company in Montreal, but each pictures or movies about rovio is in 3D. rovio is a sweet little robot you can meet at http://www.meetrovio.com/. The website has just been launch!

When I got there, the modeling, textures and lighting were already done by my first coworker Patrice Desrosiers (thanks pal!). All I did was some little touch up and all the animation.

It's not a lot by it was fun... and was my first job yeah!!!

enjoy!

Tadam!

Finaly, finaly, there is my short movie. All this starts one year ago, and this is what came up.
It was one year of intense suffering but also full of memorable moments.

I did everything from writing the script to doing the final render: modeling, texturing, stretch and squash rigging, animation, lighting, FX, ncloth simulation, rendering, compositing...
The only thing I didn't do was music and sound effects. These were done by a great man Louis Sédillot. Thank you very much!

Go get yourself some pop corn and start the show!
I hope you'll enjoy it.

Opération Fromage frames

These are some cool frames from the short movie I did at school.

There is my kitchen, wich I am quite pround of, and there is Justine the little white mouse who is the main character of my movie and Bernard.

Soon I will post the entire video.

But for the moment enjoy this!!!
