PREPARATION & PLANNING DEPT: Character doodles before jumping into an animation exercise. China marker on sketchpad, approximately 8.5" x 11"

STUPID SATURDAY PROJECTS DEPT: It occurred to me that I haven't shown much of my 3D work, so I'm putting these up - a still image and animation pair. They were a one-day personal project inspired by a piece of matchbook cover art that I found on the web. I liked it and cooked up this simple model and camera move. I was also testing out how clean a depth-of-field render I could get out of Modo 301. What do you think? Modeled and animated in Modo 301: Sill image 1000 x 563 pixels, movie 600 x 337 pixels @ 24 fps
