Animated Doodle 7 - Tabby

Here's how that cat short is fleshing out:

(sorry its taking me so long to post these things.
I have to transfer stuff between computers, and I'm a lazy lazy person)

Animated Doodle 6 - Fancy Sand

Fancy Sand

This was an attempt at creating a sand animation effect in Photoshop and After Effects.
The frames were painted in black and white with a warm photo filter.
The imagery is somewhat random. Its a piece about to mental disease.

Animated Doodle 5 - Fairy

Animated Doodle4 - Abstraction

I think alot about the brain and the nature of our perception. So today I wanted to start an a pure abstract from the beginning and see where it took me. The result is almost an iconic representation of the word "abstract." What does that say about painting as a language?

Animated Doodle3 - CatWalk

This is a slightly jerky cat walk. This gif moves a little faster than it should.
Also, it looks better coming forward in space than it does walking in one place.
I've fleshed this doodle out into a short, which I will post hopefully later today.

This almost has a pastel animation look. I'm going to experiment more with trying to create that and other natural effects in Photoshop. Nothing beats the real deal, but its nice to do something that is close.

Animated Doodle2 - Bed Time

Here is the second of my daily animated doodle series. I think he's cute but so far have heard "dark" and "disturbing" used to describe the little guy. Se la vi.

Animated Doodle1 - Sinus Pressure

This will be a series of animated doodles created in photoshop and posted as gifs here.

Someday I might actually flesh one of these brain childs out into something longer - but for now they're just moving doodles. Since they are straight ahead animations, I like to think that they say something about the state of my subconscious. That being said, the first couple came out a little dark. Perhaps they spring from the limbo that is post graduation.
Here's the first:
