Michael Brennan Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Hi Guys, I'm happy to share an animation I've been working on the past few months, I'll try to make a long story short... Since all this Covid 19 stuff things have been different, previously most of my spare time was spent working on fine art projects a lot of work I did preparing for art shows was put on hold and like many people it's been a stressful time. I guess psychologically the best way I've been able to deal with it has been to tap into my silly side and rekindle some of the things that inspired me in my younger years. Using Animation Master was one of those things, it was the first app that got me seriously into 3D and actually helped land me my first job out of college. I made a friend on this forum over 20 years ago (Bud) Mike Lium, we eventually lost touch and reconnected on Facebook even though I wasn't using A:M much or posted 3d stuff he was always a friend... always encouraged me and my art. These past couple months while working on this animation I couldn't wait to surprise him with it. Sadly I didn't finish it in time, and found out he passed away a few weeks ago. So I dedicate this to Bud. Mike https://vimeo.com/417019628 <br> 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Brennan Posted October 15, 2020 Author Share Posted October 15, 2020 I'm a fan of sketching ideas and making storyboards before animating. Here is a rough animation created in Adobe Animate before I started on the 3d side of things. was a fun and quick way to play with animation ideas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfsongCG Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Love that animation! I also saw your other work on your YT channel. Very nice work. I picked up some tips on using splines from your time-lapses as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
