Hi Guys, I haven't been here in ages, mostly because I haven't animated anything in Anime Studio for over a year. But I have done so recently as part of my new portofolio site I'm building at the moment. Since it takes a lot of time to get the site done, I had the idea to do some animation for the u...

Yay! Slowtiger! I was hoping you still browsed these forums! :D Yes, the animation needs some improvement ... the chief isn't really shifting his weight from one leg to the other, but merely goes up and down. And perhaps you try to avoid this overly fluid look where everything movers at the same pac...

Hello guys! I know, it's been ages since I've been active here... but my new animation project - a 22 minute tv special about Easter Island - is hitting the production stage after 9 months of pre-production preparation, and I do like to share the Anime Studio animation I'm doing for it. (backgrounds...

With all the renewed interest in Marin I thought it would be nice to upload the preproduction art reel - an extra I made for the Marin DVD. You can find it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_tpgfHKZDQ Especially the fans of the films music will love this little treat because my composer made a 2...

Just returned from Stuttgart Animation Festival where I saw Marin in a student's film program. It looked very nice on the big screen. Couldn't spot any visual flaws, very clean result. The whole film seems a bit slow to me, but that's a matter of taste. And we (the forum) are mentioned in the credi...

beautifully executed! Usually this type of commercial isn't very interested to watch, but the cartoon elements add a flair of humor usually missing in ads for the financial sector.

really impressive! That's also the slickest after effects basic 3d shots I've seen in ages.

I'm eager to see where this is going!

Thanks for all the kind words,

now there is a version online with sound. It's kinda rough - all my own voice, but it makes it a lot more funny as far as I am concerned.

My girlfriend said "They bought their website at IKEA and now have to assemble it ..." This is really great. I wonder if you can submit this to an animation competition somewhere. You definitely should try to. The Ikea thing was kind of the idea. I pleased that it reads this good. Especia...

Good day everyone! I know I've not been around much lately, but that's because I'm developing a series of animations for an ad agency who asked me to revamp their image by adding a 'personal and humorous touch'. The first animation is an under construction page you can see here http://www.adk-europe...

hrm. I was yet to post about the final animation here, but that doesn't seem necessary anymore. But yes, it is finished. And I couldn't be more happy about the end result. And yes, Alexander Reumers is a brilliant composer and made my film that much better with his music and sound design. He still s...

http://marin.hku.nl/press/Marin_poster_s.jpg Hello everyone, the last weeks have been so hectic I didn't find the time to update on my progress. But everyone who had commented when I did had a huge impact on my film, I thank you all for that. Just a little while longer and I can show you the final ...

Good day everyone! I 'finished' another scene of my movie. The sequence where Marin chrashes and sees the mermaid, one of the more intense effects loaded sequence of the film, so it was a lot of work. But somehow I've got it done in just a week. So that means I'm still on scedule... http://marin.hku...

human: scene 3 is underwater, what you see through the window is the bottom of the sea. The buildings are build right into the water and go up above sealevel. If that's not clear enough now I really have to do something about it. slowtiger: To have Marin hesitate for a moment before opening the doo...

I finished a new scene yesterday; the one with the subway girl preceding the scene I started out with. http://marin.hku.nl/animation/moho_tests/scene_3_01-08m.mov Any and all comments to improve upon it are really welcome! And here is the first scene with a lot of slowtiger's suggestions implemented...
