Mickey Mouse from ozeri ben on Vimeo.

Drawing for Animation class with Frederik Villumsen.
In the past 2 weeks we have been working on a Mickey Mouse scene, using the model from Fantasia.

The guidelines were 6 sec, Mickey casts a spell and then gets disappointed by the result.

In this assignment I wanted my story to be very clear, and that I would hit the audience exactly where I was aiming for. In the end, telling a story and communicating with the audience is the most important part of Animation. Close to the end of the project, after having a small visit in my workstation from Kaj Pindal, I understood how timing was the tool that made the biggest difference in achieving that goal. 

Caricatures for this fine week

Street Sketch

This week I went out with some friends to sketch on the streets. I was trying to sketch some environments but I couldn't help myself drawing some people too.

Work in progress- The Sad Dolls Stand

Work in progress, playing with Photoshop.
Walking the streets of Viborg I saw this guy with a sad handmade dolls stand.

My interpretation to Hamlet's first scene. Last assignment after a week of Design with Lawrence Marvit.
The ghost of the dead king appears in front of the castle guards.

"
MARCELLUS: Peace, break thee off; look, where it comes again! 

BERNARDO: In the same figure, like the king that's dead. "... 

..."HORATIO: What art thou that usurp'st this time of night, together with that fair and warlike form in which the majesty of buried Denmark did sometimes march? by heaven I charge thee, speak! "
