Interesting Stuff 3-6|PPP3

Over the summer I kept on updating my other blog with the industry related news. Below is a little compilation of posts I did, starting from the oldest one to the newest.

Interesting Stuff 03: (first posted on 30.05)
Three good thingies~

  • Free Andrew Loomis Art Instruction Downloads on Illustration Friday - do I even have to explain this ;)?
  • Project 2501 - homage to the GiTS done by a group of insanely amazing artists. 
  • Let's Draw Episode 73 - another cool vid from FZDSchool channel, this time we got 9 different color comps inspired by Final Fantasy VII. It's a part 1 and part 2 should be out soon (adding detail).

Two things today :)

  • Women are not too hard to animate - an interesting article explaining why Ubisoft excuse for not having a female assasin is lame. Also, kudos for Sunset Overdrive Insomniac team for implementing an female assasin in their game within few days (yes, it's a same model with just diffferent texture/clothes but hey, no complains).
  • Duet  - a beautiful, hand drawn animation, created by Glen Keane. Also, a really nice making-of explaining the technology behind this piece.

I had this list in draft for ages, but still worth uploading I guess ;)
  • A really good advice on how to get to the animation industry by Dankrall.
  • Brainstorm group on Facebook with weekly concept art challenges and really cool themes. I haven't participated in any of them yet, shold fix this mistake soon.
  • 4 Keys to Staying Creative short article on creativity by Bobby Chiu.
  • Tokkun Academy - Art School TV Channel - fundraising campain started a bit time ago on Indiegogo. I find the idea of art TV channel really weird, but since places like KiwiJuice and Gumroad been so succesful with selling tutorials, the online art channel might be not that bad afterall. Maybe it would depend on type of ads they decide to air in between classes and tutorials ;)
  • Inside Velocity 2X: Animation System - since Velocity 2X is available for free with Playstation Plus offer for September, this particular bulletpoint is timed perfectly :). I've attended a Futurlad talk during last year's BAF and were already familiar with crazy amount of work they've put into animating Kai.

Another batch of things that are interesting and cool :) .

  • Mery Project is a free character rig made by two Spanish artists. I'm having tons of fun playing with her, making silly poses.
  • Hotel Transylvania Zombie Rig - perfect for upcoming Halloween, a free Zombie rig. If you watched Sony Pictures Hotel Transylvania you'll recognize a character. So cool that you can play with the actual character rig that such a big studio uses. Sweet.
