Welcome to my life - post 07

Hello everyone, here are some more updates for Welcome to my life.

This week i have some nice little animation tests to show off, they should tide you over until the first short comes out:

A short animation of George walking

(quite pointless for the shorts as he will be sitting throughout them but good to know that he can do walk cycles)

 

A test of Tom (Georges dog)

(The eagle eyed among you may be able to see my hand pop into shot for a frame. This will not happen when i'm animating the shorts)

There will be more posts soon, thanks for watching.

Welcome to my life - post 5

Hello again and welcome to a very exciting post on the Welcome to my life blog.
This week i have puppet production photos to show you of George and Tom.

Georges body made of blue foam

Georges head made of a softer pink foam

Georges head was then covered in super sculpy, witch was then hardened and painted
the eyes are made of white sculpy with holes in the middle so that they can be moved
His pupils were carefully painted on with black paint

Here is George with his full body.
His arms are made of twisted wire and furnature foam
his legs and feet are made from blue foam and plastic

Here is a test of George sitting in his chair

Tom was a basic wire armature held together with glue

The head as with Georges was made using foam and sculpy

Tom was then covered in fur and given ears nose and eyes

Here he is almost complete

Thank you for checking out the making of, if you have any questions please feel free to send me a message, there will be more updates very soon and there should be some nice animation tests to show you all.

Every day we get closer and closer to hearing George speak
closer and closer to hearing his philosophy on the world and
things in general.

Here are the maquettes of Pat and George all looking fancy for your viewing pleasure
Please enjoy:

 

 

The happy couple Pat and George

As you can see they both look very smart in their new forms
the next step is to turn them into animateable puppets

Keep watching there will be more posts soon!
