shaunf Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I thought people might be interested in having a look at some of the work I have done for Jamster recently. I'm working on them to let me show it on A:M films, but in the meantime...... http://www.jamster.com.au/jcw/goto/graphic...802749795S11111 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted October 26, 2005 Hash Fellow Share Posted October 26, 2005 Those look real cute. (I can't figure out what "clap" is about.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dborruso Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 LOL Those are fantastic. Great hair. Funny animations. Can I ask how they pay you at jamster? Do they pay you once upfront or do they pay you by how much you sell? It is something to think about. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micheldani Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Wow man, This is excellent work! the rendering and the animation is quite impressive... show me more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunf Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 Jamster! International have since given permission for Hash Inc to show the clip on A:M films, so if you follow the below link you can have a look at a higher res version of the complete clip. http://amfilms.hash.com/search/entry.php?entry=1077 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odog2020 Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 man that was great, and my son loved it. It just looked so smooth and real, don't know why they were picking on the middle guy though Anyways, great work, would love to see more when you get em Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pequod Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Fantastic animation Shaun, technically very impressive too. I bet you had a few 'pass throughs' to contend with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Forwood Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 That was excellent, Shaun! I think that is the best display of A:M hair that I have seen up to now. Did you hand animate the falling lid, the one that bounces at the back-left of the screen, or did you use Newton on that? Brilliant! And the sound track! Did you do that too? Excellent all round!

KenH Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Very cool. Some relief from their previous frog character. Can't watch it without smiling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamagica Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 hahaha...I have never laughed at an animation as much as I just did. The gestures are HILARIOUS. The part when the middle guy is hitting the trash can...the movement is so funny (yet it's still great animation, no doubt). I also like how he reacts to the other guys hitting him. He looks at them both like "what the heck"...VERY GOOD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyGormezano Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 that is too too excellent - what fun! Terrific job. Very engaging characters, animated wonderfully - superb. Where did the music come from? Did you do that or does Jamster provide the music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunf Posted November 13, 2005 Author Share Posted November 13, 2005 Hey Chaps, Thanks for the comments I bet you had a few 'pass throughs' to contend with. Damn right, And many that I missed, but I ran out of time and had to be happy with what I had. Where did the music come from? Did you do that or does Jamster provide the music? Nope. Not my music, they gave me the music and I animated to it. I'm more of a 'Maceo Parker' kind of music guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmonaut Posted November 13, 2005 Share Posted November 13, 2005 Wow, that's amazing. Wonderful animation and that hair is FAN-TASTIC! Did you render that with V11 or V12? How long did that take to render with all that hair? For some reason I'm not getting the sound but it hardly matters. Really, really nice.

shaunf Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Did you render that with V11 or V12? How long did that take to render with all that hair? Hey Kevin, I rendered it in v11, although hair looks better in v12 now. It took two weeks to render running a render farm of 6 x 2.8 gig machines. Each frame was about 1 hour. I rendered out one image of the background and comped the shadows and monsters in on top. If I had rendered the whole thing (ie. the background, monsters and shadows all as one pass) it would have been a much higher render time. I love my render farm. I wouldn't have been able to render this with my one machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnxpyre Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 That was a really sweet animation. I keep finding myself watching this over and over again, because it is so awesome.

Luxo Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Wow that was incredible! That deserves a standing ovation, in fact I'm standing right now as I'm typing.

KenH Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 That's looking promising. Can't wait to see it. Do people ask you to do these or are you doing them off your own back?

shaunf Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 Hey peoples, here is the latest mobile phone animation I have completed. This time for a company called 'Sharky Mobile' who have since sold it on to Jamster. Once again all done in A:M. http://amfilms.hash.com/search/entry.php?entry=1084 Just one note. The lip sync is slightly out, this is because of a timing issue in the music after the animation was completed (they found the music was about a half second too long after it was all put together and had to re-edit it).

JTalbotski Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Aw, poor little guy.... Very well done, Shaun! I love the part where he first says "Please say yes." Is that a matte painting of the street and houses? Did you create it? Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunf Posted January 28, 2006 Author Share Posted January 28, 2006 Hi Jim, It is a matte painting and rendered using A:M's 'layers' tool. I didn't paint the painting. Sharky mobile had it done by another company 'Stenarts'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenH Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I love it. It really has a Christmasy feel to it. Great mouse and great hair....and those eyes! So blue and cute. One thing I noticed was the lip sync toward the end didn't seem right. Or maybe it's the versatility of his mouth. Something about it. Edit: It's probably his big bucked teeth getting in the way.

cosmonaut Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Wow, I really need to check the showcase forum more often (it's kind of lost in the middle). What a fantastic piece of work Shaun. How did you get away with such short hairs on the little guy? The animation is amazing but I'm almost more in awe of your rendering...keep up the great work!
