Squirrelly Afternoon

http://vimeo.com/38140621This is a simple animation, but a really cute animation. I used just a small ball rig with a tail to show a small story of a squirrel bouncing from one branch to the other. It has all the classics of of a simple wall with the bouncing and squash and stretch; along with weight and secondary motion in the tail.  I personally find that in feature film animations that I love the silent side kick characters. They show so much emotion and spirit, that I couldn't help but animate one of mine own.

What, Who's there?!

http://vimeo.com/38140735This is a fun little animation that is in my demo reel. It's a simple gear change but I like the feeling of the piece with the new background and direct lighting.

This is the newest version of my Demo Reel. It's week 9 and the final cut is due next week.  It shows all the animations that I have been working on, that I believe are the best that I have to offer.
