Hi Chris

You've got some cracking workflows here and it was refreshing to see that you didn't depend on mel scripting for your rigs either. Just wondered if you've got a portfolio website kicking around anywhere?

nice showreel mate. i 'd like to know how u did the smooth cartoony movement of that cool car??? blend shape i think !!

[burnzay]

Thanks mate, actually I used a lattice deformer that way i could still open the doors boot, bonnet ect and it would still be deformed. check out my other vid, the tutorial one, you can see what i mean. Thanks for the comment, best of luck.

Very nice portfolio there mate. I'm most impressed with the Snippitz video as that was very new and interesting. I really would like to how you made the scene covered in yellow with a "hand drawn" look to it? Or could you point me into a bit of a right direction? Softwares used to achieve that effect?

[burnzay]

That part of the comercial was not done by myself, I only animated the guys driving the scooters, but i did se how it was done, it was hand animated. frame by frame, i did a bit of the rotoscoping for the black lines of the buildings ect using Affter effects and Photoshope, there were about 15 people working on it and they were all quick cuts so was'nt too bad. The studio that made the commercial was 'XYZ Studios' check out thier web site for other cool work they've done.

Awesome showreel. Love the car.

I watched your rigging video and you said you used motion paths for the tank tracks. I'm making my own tank and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it.

Got any pointers I could use?

Cheers.

[burnzay]

Thanks mate, its a bit dated now, i really wanna update it with more recent/better work. Ive had lots of comments about that tank treads in the rigging vid, I never got around to making a more indepth tutorial but the reason i used motion paths is because I couldnt find a better way to attach a piece of geometry to a curve. This is probably still the best way to do it. Look for a tutorial on motion paths, once you know how to attach one object, its just a matter of attaching each piece of track

i was wondering, when your car character spoke, did you use blend shapes to achieve this?

[burnzay]

Yes, the Car character is mostly blend shapes. You can see how on my rigging video
