Hope your day turns out better then the poor ginger bread man in this doodle of mine.

Tango BG's

These are some rough thumbnail versions of the bg's for my film titled "Tango"
more to come this weekend along with my leica reel.

Final Life Drawing Portfolio

Sooo.. had to hand in my final life drawing portfolio today and ended up using pastels for the first time in a couple years. Somewhat of a risky idea seeing how I was short 5 drawings and went with a medium that I haven't used in quite some time. Anywho, here's a couple of the drawings that I did today that made it into zee portfolio.

Film / Winter Fair / Lectures / Sketches

So... here's a real motherload of a sketch dump. Enjoy!

Film Related Stuff (painted BG's coming real damn soon)

Random Doodles -

Cafe Drawings @ Oakville Place

2 pages of notes from 2 different lectures at good ole Sheridan.

One day was useful, but the other.. well... not that great.. at all.

Royal Winter Fair 09'

Life Drawing in December

These are a handful of the life drawings that I did today in class.

Enjoy.. or not

Film Concept

After finally boarding out the ending to my film (currently going by the name of "Tango" ) I decided to celebrate by creating a digital painting of one of my main characters.

Design style for my film.

These are some basic designs I did for my 4th year film which involves two cowboys that go to many places around the world.

Life Drawings of the day

Decided that I'd go to extra life today seeing how it tends to be a bit less chaotic when finding a spot in the life drawing studio on weekends thus resulting in a more relaxing and enjoyable time. The first two images are 1 minute studies and the 3rd / last image is 2 minute studies.

On another note I should have some concept art to throw up on here later in the week regarding my short film.

Self Portrait

On a total whim I ended up creating a self portrait of myself.

4th year film

Well.. after many months now and starting to lose faith in myself with regards to coming up with a film that's short, sweet, and to the point.  To my surprise though, something finally started to come together for me as of today.. Even though the idea sparked from a situation I was in the other day when trying to get back to my car before what looked to be a massive thunder storm in the makings, my film has nothing to do with racing storms.  

Really not sure what the setting will be, but it could be post apocalyptic, and will most likely start off in a mountain valley.  Nothing concrete though since again, I only came up with this idea today.  I'll get more into detail a little later on when I have more to show.. But for now I have what looks to be the main character.

He actually started off an old innocent cripple of a man.. But throughout the day he evolved into this.. in fact I wasn't even trying to come up with a design for him either, I was trying to figure out what the secondary character (a robot) would look like.  There may also be a third character which will be a little girl,  but I'm beginning to think she won't be necessary.  SO.. probably just this guy, and a robot.

Happy Fathers Day!

As for the rest of you.. I've got nothing.

Hyenas and Lions!

I was watching a documentary on this one group of lions who hunt one herd of Buffalo, and only that herd all year long. Although on this one page that I scanned there isn't any drawings of Buffalo to be found.. but there are a couple drawings of Hyenas that showed up in one little section of the documentary. After watching the documentary it's made me want to check out the Denver Zoo that much more, which will probably happen next week at some point. I also have a page of doodles from when I was watching an episode of Conan too.

OMG a Dog

or 4... umm I've been using 50% grey and black markers a lot as of lately since that's what I've been having to use for the past 3 weeks for my co-op. SOOO it only made sense to try using them on my own time too.  This is the result of my first time using markers for gestural type drawings.

I just "disappear"

These are some sketches and a painting of my main character and the women that he gets involved with for my 4th year film that is currently titled "the magician"
Wont get into details about the story, but I pitched it to my classmates last week and they all seemed to like the idea.

I'm Still Alive

It's true! Really don't have anything to post other then work related to the film of which I don't plan on posting till after it's completed in a months time. The main reason why I'm even making this post is because of the video I'm about to show which is incredibly funny due to how sad and true this guy is.. (no idea who he is)

and uh.. a life drawing from last night since.

Very Very Very Rough Color Study / Layout

Just a rough color study and layout that I'm currently working on. Finished results should be available in the near future.

2 Month Drought

These are some life drawings of mine from earlier this week for the first time in 2 months along with a page of cafe drawings from.. well.. two months ago.
