Spiderman!

I lovezeeez Spiderman, So i wanted to try a mix of my own stop motion put together in flash, then taken into After Effects just to play around with some lighting/cameras/colours etc.

I cannot even begin to explain how much doing this hurt my head.. and yes, i'm aware of the dodgy black outline around the orbs that kinda ruin the whole effect, but, shush, i dunno how to fix it yet! And the shadow below the orb is a bit too low now that i've watched it a few times. Ohwell, i'm still in love with it because it's shiny, ooo :) I also have no explanation as to why its bunched up into an oval and not a sphere anymore? Stupid rendering. Ohwell, it's all a learning curve, right?

After Effects!.. Continued

Straight after uploading that last short clip I was thinking how I could use my new found knowledge. And so once it uploaded i realised, oh, for this site! Or some form of self promotion. I dunno, so I played around a bit more..

And then, feeling abit more comfortable with things, I played around just slightly, using what i'd already learnt.

After Effects!

I totally just did this (From an online tutorial) I'm really enjoying learning the programme!

Hey, it's not real life, it's highschool.

Ok so someone might find this interesting, but I doubt it. My first memory of properly getting into doodling, though i always have done, was sat in front of my mums TV trying to do the drawings from this, then trying my own about my school. It was the possibly the first time I wanted to animate my own cartoons like it showed in the show, it was just super awesome, I loved it!

Metropolis concept art

Ok so scans from my sketchbook to how they eventually turned out!

And some playing around in photoshop afterwards -
