I dug up an old friend of mine, the stupid robot I made a few years ago. I've been tinkering with SynthEyes the last couple of days. Basically I recorded a video of my desk with my mobile phone and imported it into SynthEyes, did the tracking and adjustments then exported it to A:M. I see there is some jittering on the tracking, but overall I'm satisfied. The animation is just an old and crappy action I made long time ago. Let me know what you think johnny6.mov Here is an small screen capture:

Hey guys. This model is very reminiscent of Thom and the ball-with-legs model used in so many boot camps in A:M. I know he's not much, but even the smallest step is good if it's in the right direction. Please feel free to critique in any way. I have attached one of him in standard pose, and one in a more actiony pose, and one of the purely mechanical bone rig (no CP weights, fan bones, or smartskins.) I am contemplating replacing it with the 2001 rig, for the simple reason of the hips null target. Thanks for reading! Peace. J Man bones.bmp pose.bmp skin.bmp

I'm on the home stretch with the cast. Just 3 more robots to go. All female, so I'll take more care making them. Then I go to storyboarding, recording voices and building sets. Once that's done I'll finally start animating some episodes. Click here or on the picture

http://www.happybigfun.com/Robotsrobotsrobots.html It is my intention to make a monthly five minute animated podcast (web series) featuring sentient robots at war. It will be called "Robots Robots Robots!" Right now, none of them can change forms, but at some point I'm going to try to make a robot that can transform. I won't use that term in the series cause I don't want to get sued. The plan, inspired by beast wars, is to make 8 robots, a few sets, and then continue to re-use those same models throughout the series. This will take some time to start up, but my hope is that it will only take a month to make each episode once all the models are made and I'm only …

It has been a while since I posted anything so I have the engine I am working on. (Some day I will get back to working on the bar scene just not today) This is a sort of fantasy rocket engine that will have moving flashing lights inside of it (thus the clear sections) I am trying to figure out how to rig a big crysta to the top of it as well as more hoses and some structure, but for now here it is in its unfinished un textred glory.

HI everyone, it's been awhile I guess! As some of you may know, I put computer animation aside about four years ago after learning and working in A:M for over ten years, to focus on learning traditional cel animation. I've got one project, "Sexy Texie", that has been making the rounds of film festivals for the past year. You can see it on Vimeo. I tried to add a link here, but the post got wonky! I'm working on a new one, a poem about an eight year old boy who builds his own hydrogen-powered race car to enter in the big race. They won't let him enter because he's only eight, but he decides to enter anyway. I've got this one shot that I'm unable to draw by hand, and R…

Hey hallowed hashers! I've been laying low, but have had a chance to get 45 seconds of full finished animation of my 4 'Rollin Stone characters...here's how it's lookin'... I will let it render over the holiday and hope to post something on A:M Films by the NewYear... I am rendering at double D1 res (1440X972) so the hair won't 'jitter' on video and it is taking about 17 minutes per frame so it will be awhile...I have 4 processors on 2 machines working on it. A 4X4 multipass D1 render was over 32 min. Does anyone in the A:M community offer renderfarm services?

Here's a preview render of my progress for Year in Review 2004. All animation will take place in this room. The current lighting is the default choreography with the addition of the two lamps. I'll tweak the lighting as time goes on. For the moment, I'm looking for modeling critiques, but if you have any helpful thoughts on lighting, textures, design, or anything else, I'd love to hear them!

I've been tasked with creating several rooms. Here's my first room using AO. Before this project, I've never really used anything but normal lights (I've never used radiosity or AO before). One thing I notice is how grainy the whole thing looks, despite using some okay settings for sampling and passes. Also, it's very bright at the top, which sort of blows out the ceiling area and ceiling fan. I wasn't expecting that. I'm unsure how to make the lighting more even. Any thoughts on how to improve are welcome. Please keep in mind I'm brand-new to AO when you make suggestions. Settings: AO: on No radiosity. No real lights in the scene. ambiance intensi…

I've been rather ill lately, and have not had the concentration to work on the real project at hand (our Mountain film) so I built a 3-D model of my roomate's head. It's kinda creepy without ears and hair and the neck is incomplete, but it was a fun challenge to build a realistic head for a change. (We may use it in an animated version of him to introduce his architecture portfolio in the future, but no immediate plans.)

What is the best way to approach the decaling of a coiled rope? Up to this point I have only needed to decal rope a couple of time and then only one length at a time. Now that I am modeling the Spanish Galleon: http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=32733&hl= , I have a ton of rope to decal. I used to take the rope model, create a pose, and then straighten the rope in the pose to apply the cylindrical rope decal. This works great for one or two pieces of rope, but now I have so many pieces and coiled rope to boot. I wonder if you could decal a staright piece of rope first and then coil it? Maybe in an action or something?

Roses are red - another lipsync to some music. The problem is I have an avi-file as a background on a layer. The avi-file has some roses flying up. The avi-file is 1 second. And I want to repeat it - loop it - but how to do it - I can not figure out... I have made a keyframe in the Choreography for the layer with the avi - file and in the timeline I am choosing for that keyframe: Curve > Post-Extrapolation Method > Repeat But the avi-file will not repeat - will not loop!!! What am I doing wrong? Or is there some other method to get an avi-file to loop?

Hello, this avi-file of a rotating blue light is my first own project outside the exercises and tutorials. Of course, it is not of artistic value. But I hope I can learn from your critics and improve my knowledge on animation:master. The most time I spent by fitting the lighting performance so that the blue light looks as real as possible.

OK, I'm going to tackle modelling a character. I've created some images in Poser and my plan is to use them as rotoscopes. The character will be used for toon renders. Are these pics OK for the rotoscoping process, or should I have done something differently? I don't want to make problems for myself before I start. Thanks Adam

While I'm waiting to get my Robot fixed I began working on these rotoscopes. They are inspired/copied from an old Golden Age cartoon "The Fox and the Crow." I've always loved crow characters. I found when I was doing my robot that not having a rotoscope was too much freedom and not enough structure, and I got bogged down since I had no direction so I'm hoping this will help. I want a decent rotoscope that will help me plan out the splines, which was another issue I had. Someone said (I think it was the guy who did the Osprey) that you should always work from a rotoscope. Anyway, here it is - any comments are appreciated that you think might improve it, or anythi…

Here is a project I worked on quite a while ago that I have decided to pull off the shelf and remake with my newer technology (faster Mac and Hash for OS X) and a little (not much) more experience. The story line is being revised and I'm going to make an attempt create it as one whole piece. I'm not going for visual superiority here, I just use simple, but nice models, camera tricks (city with only a few buildings filmed from different angles and with layers...), and maybe a lower frame rate. In this presentation everything is done in Hash except for a couple backgrounds and one cut scene, which are done in Bryce. In the new version I'm going to use a combo of Hash and Li…

OK Well, he's not exactly cute or endearing yet, I think the pupils are too tiny..... And I still have a few things to add. I think I will just give him paddle feet, or modify the hands and make feet out of those. I've made horns, I just didn't bother to put them on. I'll be putting some decals on him at some point, nothing too fancy just something to punch him up a bit. He'll still be clay shaded. One thing I am not entirely happy with is the snout....this one is true to my original sketches, I didn't want to have a beak or anything with teeth, like an alligator or t-rex. I guess I could give him like a little anteater mouth with a tou…
