    Exercise Completed: Exercise 11.5, Make A Face

     

    Date Completed: Nov. 6, 2008

     

    Instructor: Manual, forum

     

    Comments: A couple rounds of working on the face. At one point, I had the full head textured, but no ears. It was impossible to add the ears simply, so I went back to the half head, modeled the ears, flip attached the head and re-textured! Wife asked, "Is he supposed to be an elf?". So, I could see tweaking the ears. :)

     

    Most challenging AM model to date.

  2. Hi, my name's Daniel Finlay. I've been into improv comedy for years and have felt like exploring animation lately. I've read most of "Animator's Survival Guide," and have begun "The Illusion of Life." I've been pretty lazy about posting so far, so although I've tried my hand at all of the Tao:AM tutorials, I haven't posted my results on any of them... Anyway, I want to be less of a lurker because I see how much other users are learning by posting about where they are in the learning process.

     

    I just received the AM DVD library in the mail, because I have some animation ideas, but my interest really lies in animating, not so much in modeling. I had a blast doing the "Stuck Door" tutorial:

    Anyways, I'll hopefully start working on this idea during the next few weeks, and I should have questions along then.

     

    One question, kindof a plea: Does anyone have actor models to share that already have facial-poses? So far I was thinking of using the "Jason" cartoon actor off the DVD, but I'm on the fence between making his facial poses from scratch or just using one of the stock characters. Any help would be awesome, although I suppose rigging my own faces would be a good experience anyways.

  3. Hey there I am very new at this and was needing some one to help me with learning how to get started. I dont even understand how to post things yet so I am hoping this is the right way to do it. Please respond to this to let me know if I got it or not. What I am looking foris some one to help guid me through making a room filled with stuff. Thank you

  4. Hello and Welcome to the New Users forum!

     

    Our goal here is to provide help and support for those working their way through Hash Inc's manual; The Art of Animation:Master .

     

    Animator Tony White stated in his recently published book; From Pencils to Pixels:

    What particularly impresses me about this program is its manual. Unlike all the other software manuals, this one actually speaks to you with the soul of an animator, not a techie. It is a perfect starting place for the aspiring young animator who, for relatively little cost, can one day make their Hollywood dreams come true.

     

    We encourage everyone to take advantage of the resources at your disposal.

    Post your exericises in the TaoA:M forum. You'll learn from the experience and feedback you get. You'll have a whole lot of fun! :)

     

    The entire community of A:M users is here for you. They'll guide and encourage you as you explore the world of animation as only they can.

     

    Remember we are all in this learning process together.

    Everyone starts out as a beginner, so don't be shy. You'll soon see how amazing the A:M Community really is.

     

    In case you didn't already know:

     

    So what are you waiting for?

    Don't spend your life lurking!

     

    Introduce or reintroduce yourself to the A:M Community and find out why purchasing Animation:Master was such a really great idea.

     

    Welcome to the A:M Community!

    You've definitely come to the right place.
