Grand Marnier commercial

Here is a commercial, which I had contributed some animation to a couple of shots. Some shots were done traditionally, and cleaned up in flash. The majority of the shots were animated using flash, and photoshop.

Pretty Swamped, but I wanted to post some sketch book drawings

I have been pretty busy... but I found a minute to post some sketches.

Yes, I sketch some times during life drawing breaks,( in reference to the 1st drawing) but I try not to be that anti social, but I like to get a quick sketch in or two :)

I had started to play with Painter

I have started to play with painter to compare it to photoshop. So far I like the intuitiveness with painter compared to photoshop. The only advantage with photoshop is the length of time which I have been using it.

More Sketch booksketches

I am glad, these people stuck around at the table long enough to get a good study for myself.

The two sketches below, I seized the moment and used a Tombo brush marker, as well as other rendering marks to indicate shadow,depth and texture at Stir Crazy cafe. This could go good or bad all the time. It's different than adding the tone in Photoshop under a controlled environment.

I was more comfortable with my pen this day. I always try to add indications of the environment, and to get a sense of the feel of the place.

For anyone visiting my blog, thanks for checking out my stuff. There are more sketches to come in the future.

Doodle Page from sketch group meet at Coffee shop

Page sketch at coffee shop meeting with sketch group. I posted it because it''s done on a loose leaf paper, and I would probably just end up loosing it.
