Had a blast animating these shots!

It’s my birthday today! @Sanaz_artt made this animation for me and I’m obsessed. Seriously… look at that 2D animation, so gorgeous!!

In my experience, the eyes often carry more weight in facial animation than the mouth or cheeks. I try to give the eyes a little more attention so they feel right.

Animating takes time, but it's rewarding.

what a lot of people are unaware of is how much study goes into becoming an animator Acting is terribly hard and is such an incredible craft! But an animator doesn't only have to understand acting, they also have to understand how to create this acting physically (1/4)

Here is an old eye analysis I did a few years ago. I was deep into learning about human eye muscles and how we can get a fleshy feel around the eye mask area.

Some beginners feel that using video reference is ‘cheating’ but it really isn’t. It’s simply a helpful tool for discovering interesting choices and nuances we might not come up with on our own.

Saw this performance back in 2020 and had to try a quick animation test. A few months ago, I revisited it using Ramon rigs, which was such a refreshing experience. I’ve always loved close-up shots :)

Sometimes, cheating is part of the magic in animation.

Fun animation I worked on in my spare time. Watch in full-screen.

Powerful. Free. Coming soon for Maya animators.

A study shot my student @Sanaz_artt reimagined from Claynosaurz. She’s only been doing CGI for three months, but her 2D background really shows in her animation.
