My diploma short animations




A short film about a sister whose house-cleaning efforts are always thwarted by her younger brother until she finally decides that enough is enough.



This is the animatic for 'Leave It or Be It'.
Medium: Pencil on paper, Photoshop, Flash, Premiere, and AfterEffects.





 This animation is a warm-up excercise that I did at Lasalle College of the Arts. It was mostly to get used to animating on paper while generating story ideas for our student short film. We (2D classmates and myself) were fortunate to have a dance student help us choreograph the steps. The dance was filmed from different angles and I selected different segments of the video footage as reference to create a typical scenario in this character's life.

Medium: Pencil on paper, Photoshop, and Flash. 









 




 These are model and colour sheets I did for practice before starting production on the warm-up excercise. The character design is based on Wang Yuan Chao's maquette for his degree film.
