Lackadaisy Expressions
Boy, I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I started this. I've had requests for some sort of expressions tutorial dating back a while now, so I figured, "Sure! I can explain expression drawing...and it'll be way better than all those tutorials out there that are nothing but charts of generic expressions. Yeah! Just give me a day or two to whip something up..." Um. Anyway, I found all I could really do was try to explain ways to teach yourself...and then add some pictures.

Color is Value
Once a long time ago I was trying to pick the brain of a co-worker about color. He seemed to be really good with color and I was trying to get some guidance and help. He didn't really know what to tell me. He just shrugged and said, "All you need to know is that color is value. That's it." A simple statement, but I found it to be very helpful and insightful. So....what does it mean? So basically it means that, even though you're working with color, the painting should still work if it's converted back into a black, white and grey sketch, and should still follow the general rules about value that I talked about last post. Photoshop has the ability to convert any color image into black and white so that you can check your values easily if you're working digitally. and Photoshop will convert your image to black, white and grey so you can check your values. I often felt that the black and white images looked better than the final color.

Blog View - Model Sheets
В анимации Model Sheets, так же известные как character board, character sheet, character study - это документ, который используют аниматоры, чтобы помочь стандартизировать внешний вид, позы и жесты анимированного персонажа. Model Sheets необходимы, когда большое количество художников участвуют в производстве мультипликационного фильма, чтобы помочь сохранить преемственность персонажей от сцены к сцене. Так же Model Sheets очень важен тем, что помогает раскрыть персонажа с разных сторон, дабы понять "работает" ли сам образ, вызывает ли он верные эмоции. Ни одна студия, ни один мультипликационный проект никогда не пропускает столь важный процесс. Предлагаю Вам ознакомиться с Model Sheets известных и любимых нам персонажей! Anna from Frozen Meg from Hercules Daffy Duch Flynn Rider from Tangled Hades from Hercules Mushu from Mulan Jerry from Tom and Jerry Russel from UP Больше Model Sheets вы сможете найти в официальной группе AnimationClub в ВК:
Animation
Pixar's technical development team recently unveiled a new set of tools to offer CG animation the potential of a more painterly look. The idea is to give art directors more stylistic options, so that they're not always stuck with the hard plastic look that tends to come by default in CG animation software. The new process begins by having a stylist hand-paint a few keyframes. The tools then extend the style of those keyframes throughout the whole sequence, keeping the strokes and textures stable. One of the options is to extract outlines and give the output a hand-drawn look. The initial demo that they showed gives the feeling that the painterly style is just stuck on the surface of smooth digital animation, and it's been criticized for that reason. I believe one thing we'll see in coming years are all sorts of unexpected combinations between handmade and digital techniques, such as the 3-D printing-enabled stop-motion of Laika's recent Paranorman.
