Here's a fishy-poo whom I pretended to animate. Too soon! I gave her all these nice features. Don't skip the blob phase, kids! You know who we are. It was good drawin' practice though. I don't believe in waste.
"Don't draw the figure the way you think you're supposed to draw it in this class. Use the model as a reference to say what you want to say."
That's a paraphrase of instructor Joe Stauber. This class is going to keep me loose, because what I want to say is, the figure is fluid and distortable.
These are quick studies with a little Photoshop paint.
If any of you Pratt kids (HELLO!) missed this on cartoonbrew.com in August, 2006, do you mind me showing off a moment? Well, I'm going to anyway.
Mr Beck and Mr Amidi gave me a free ticket to the Ottawa Festival after I sent them this cartoon (there were four panels in all, but I guess I'll just stick to showing this one).
