Another one down

This was perhaps the most hideous animation I've ever done.  The finished result isn't bad, and with another week or so of polish it could be something I am proud of but I royally botched the blocking.  Many, many, mistakes were made but just as many lessons learned.  Hopefully I'll knock the next one out of the park.


I have been revisiting a lot of childhood / teenage memories recently and decided to watch "Katedra" again.  It's an animated short by Platige Image and Tomek Baginski.  I saw this when I was 13 at my first real introduction to the 3D medium.  I went a 'project fun' summer workshop at Cogswell in Sunnyvale. At the end of the week our teacher loaded up the best short films of the year as decided by the academy and on it was the aforementioned short. It blew me away, many of the images and stayed with me for years to come and it is a large reason for my interest in special effects. 

Without further words, here is Katedra.  Enjoy.
