Posting here after a long overdue update. </i><br />
---<br />
<br />
Hey everyone,<br />
<br />
Leo here! Hope everyone's been well! I'm here to give a quick catch-up on my on-goings at <a href="http://www.blue-zoo.co.uk/animation/">Blue-Zoo</a>. <br />
<br />
For those of you who may not know me, I graduated from the course at CG Arts & Animation last year in 2012. I'm now working on one of the latest projects from <a href="http://www.blue-zoo.co.uk/animation/">Blue-Zoo Productions</a> on a new children's show called <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1596984.Q_Pootle_5">Q-Pootle 5</a>, from author and illustrator Nick Butterworth.<br />
<br />
<center><a href="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/1337_585826718106592_840839118_n.png" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/s720x720/1337_585826718106592_840839118_n.png" width="550" /></a><br />
<b>Check out the facebook page for more info <a href="https://www.facebook.com/QPootle5">here</a>. </b></center><br />
The show follows the fun and adventures of Q-Pootle 5 and his friends Oopsy, Eddi, Stella, Ray, Groobie, Bud-D and Planet Dave, on the planet of Okidoki. Everyday is a new adventure! <br />
<br />
And I'm pleased to say that Q-Pootle 5 actually debuts very soon! With the first episode set to air on <b>Monday 29th July</b> at <b>8.15am</b> on <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/q-pootle-5">Cbeebies</a>, and will continue daily from then on. <br />
<br />
<center><a href="https://vimeo.com/snapperproductions/review/69896779/02022d0438" imageanchor="1"><img border="0" src="https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/s720x720/72510_585808811441716_2032238290_n.jpg" width="550" /></a><br />
<b>You can see the Opening title sequence in HD <a href="https://vimeo.com/snapperproductions/review/69896779/02022d0438">here</a>!</b><br />
<br />
<b>And catch a small clip of the first episode from the Cbeebies website <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/q-pootle-5/watch/q-pootle-5-space-race/">here</a>! </b><br />
</center><br />
I wasn't there to work on the first episode myself - it may actually be a little while until the episodes I've worked on come to air (I will remind you then!), but the first episode is a great one so be sure to check it out! <br />
<br />
---<br />
Other than that, working at Blue-Zoo has been good so far with my main role of Lighting and Rendering. In a nutshell, I'm responsible setting up lights in a scene with the respective render layers and passes, getting them rendered and then passing them along to the compositers. It may sound a little dry to some, but it feels good to be part of the team with your contributions being valued in the pipeline as a whole - not to mention learning new tricks along the way!<br />
<br />
It also great that Blue-Zoo has a nice friendly causal atmosphere around the office, which helps to keep things fresh. With the summer weather, we've had company trips to park, the pub and of course a evening out to the zoo... a real one that is (in costume!).<br />
<br />

<i>Just a lion mask for me!</i></center><br />
Thats all for now! All the best to everyone - and be amazing as usual! <br />

Here I just wanted to give a quick update from things on my end. <br />

Recently, I've teamed up with the guys over at <a href="http://atompancakes.blogspot.co.uk/">Atom Pancakes</a> where we've begun our first project as a studio. This project will be a screenplay adaptation of the book <i>The Little Robot</i> by Amy Mccartney. With this in mind, we've set our initial sights upon presenting 3 still poster style images for our pitch presentation, which will introduce the characters and environments.<br />

I'll keep things alive here most likely posting content I find useful for anyone still in the course trenches, so stay in touch. <br />

I'm immensely proud of my time on the course being an enjoyable and satisfying journey. Three years ago, I never would of believed I could achieve something like this, but here I am today writing this post. But enough sentimental talk as there are a few final things to wrap up.<br /><center><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigvH9gNn439sZEjoCdBclhyk-6LtzvTIobnm1pxkXrtASjYWgGy_TC9TDZvQpLEzQ7dC966R0-zoGzYfvJhxPMBno_ewSDe2MU2CbG0yggtSwWWwBBJd-_Y2Bx3yXE2GCnKHx2Ls71o3QM/s1600/grad01_blog.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigvH9gNn439sZEjoCdBclhyk-6LtzvTIobnm1pxkXrtASjYWgGy_TC9TDZvQpLEzQ7dC966R0-zoGzYfvJhxPMBno_ewSDe2MU2CbG0yggtSwWWwBBJd-_Y2Bx3yXE2GCnKHx2Ls71o3QM/s400/grad01_blog.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5764046260110129298" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMjPoi2bi-LnL2MoFlytQTirtDMybbyKBX14FzbAlDg7J-dB0tOwqlMel-FfRy5GGwd9G6-XfQRFAdqf9hqD1rbp8CuWLiiLHqItbkV6x7oFhRzslknlGQoZJ2cfmkHmW1db3nBcJWjA3G/s1600/grad03_blog.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMjPoi2bi-LnL2MoFlytQTirtDMybbyKBX14FzbAlDg7J-dB0tOwqlMel-FfRy5GGwd9G6-XfQRFAdqf9hqD1rbp8CuWLiiLHqItbkV6x7oFhRzslknlGQoZJ2cfmkHmW1db3nBcJWjA3G/s400/grad03_blog.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5764046269004703714" border="0" /></a><br /></center><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">New Designers</span><br />Our New Designers stand was a great success with 5 screens playing our animations/showreels, 3 ever spinning zoetropes, a collection of exquisite making of books and sweet lollies. Needless to say, it made for a very busy stand and gathered a huge amount of interest, including those from various industry contacts which I hope we impressed.<br /><center><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8vYEO3disU7vZsn-P3Zzgqc-y_d9aLWwcXQvTUw5SaBNJh7ryrPVAKd7x1VclbnQZomSTBvTwnN75HQxCY132ii6ZQ6DYnmUtCpu70A3glbCUYHfNnKcud01AnSBkiMTXGcoKbRthwqDT/s1600/nd01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 271px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8vYEO3disU7vZsn-P3Zzgqc-y_d9aLWwcXQvTUw5SaBNJh7ryrPVAKd7x1VclbnQZomSTBvTwnN75HQxCY132ii6ZQ6DYnmUtCpu70A3glbCUYHfNnKcud01AnSBkiMTXGcoKbRthwqDT/s400/nd01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5764046254436464226" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI6DTUYyRQIyjJAwEfEHM3y4p3VhJojs8XT8DVgRL5S1J1RpWIIqSIhrkCGc3p749KVOcZM2KB1Qz6kUshiLdAfup9YTvdqM0tTxW3q4zq4lxWBilN6y31p8K1_16qlUDM5agy-TheDCIT/s1600/nd02.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 279px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhI6DTUYyRQIyjJAwEfEHM3y4p3VhJojs8XT8DVgRL5S1J1RpWIIqSIhrkCGc3p749KVOcZM2KB1Qz6kUshiLdAfup9YTvdqM0tTxW3q4zq4lxWBilN6y31p8K1_16qlUDM5agy-TheDCIT/s400/nd02.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5764046241433207394" border="0" /></a><br />I encourage you to find many more and professional photos <a href="http://ucarochester-cgartsandanimation.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/class-of-2012-new-designers-2012.html">here</a>.<br /></center><br />The zoetropes gathered a great deal of interest in themselves, so a big thank you is in order to senior lecturer Andy Stead for making them for us. Here I've managed to capture some of the zoetropes going round; with the <a href="https://vimeo.com/44574207">Isle of Cirrus</a> flying in the sky with clouds moving past and propellers spinning, to <a href="http://thelastearthangel.blogspot.co.uk/">Charlotte</a>'s girl running with a hoop and <a href="http://www.jordanbuckner.blogspot.co.uk/">Jordan</a>'s character turnaround model. Apologies for the poor picture quality but with any luck it should help communicate the sense of charm they had.<br /><center><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BYoLCInWPG8?&rel=0&showinfo=0&hd=1" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="305" width="550"></iframe><br /></center><br />Overall, New Designers brought a nice sense of closure to my final year, where it felt wonderful to showcase my hard work for all to see. It was a busy and enjoyable week which will hopefully prove fruitful too.<br /><br />---<br /><br />So - what's next? Well, I think a well earned break is in order and then soon it will be time to look for jobs. In the mean time, I will be working on some personal projects to keep myself going where I'll most likely be starting a new blog too. But fear not, I intend to keep this blog alive and will post from time to time. Perhaps, it will help and inspire for years to come.<br /><br />Either way, this is not a goodbye but a new beginning. My best wishes to everyone who graduated and the subsequent years on the course.

Refinments include improved texturing and models to the environment, dynamic effects and some new camera shots.<br /><center><br /><object height="315" width="560"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/x-qAr2BDD_U?version=3&hl=en_GB"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/x-qAr2BDD_U?version=3&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="315" width="560"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJHqJaUDz-A216cIOkC4Om2y_DraoZ3tOmWnpj0UcnS9UeKFUdytCUxRSn1Lm3eHP9oM77gKdyEOkBWMgKBzR11o8XKiXo6NtjRBo9W2_qfs_JFA2loGyaVSlAZdEYlxF5aHPgTgOsTPje/s1600/WolvesWithinND_Still01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJHqJaUDz-A216cIOkC4Om2y_DraoZ3tOmWnpj0UcnS9UeKFUdytCUxRSn1Lm3eHP9oM77gKdyEOkBWMgKBzR11o8XKiXo6NtjRBo9W2_qfs_JFA2loGyaVSlAZdEYlxF5aHPgTgOsTPje/s400/WolvesWithinND_Still01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5759154628521065922" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5uRevjVLbKksxgUJCDC5jVM14b2ga8FHDDJwL5c2-GV-IXA6lhcTZ2TSoQmwco8hA_d_sp-Be5_EGzBcgS-u9ykrc_Oo1AHvkwC7KJUbivF5VA1BcahLy6-WqOArGhivI_o4jVOL6Bf_1/s1600/WolvesWithinND_Still03.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5uRevjVLbKksxgUJCDC5jVM14b2ga8FHDDJwL5c2-GV-IXA6lhcTZ2TSoQmwco8hA_d_sp-Be5_EGzBcgS-u9ykrc_Oo1AHvkwC7KJUbivF5VA1BcahLy6-WqOArGhivI_o4jVOL6Bf_1/s400/WolvesWithinND_Still03.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5759153516672254418" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC_OQlgqLdgPxY05JSI6O_LB2wyIGJ2hYjH4NhJccGA7KQl6lIBOjN5dV_C6V8yqXx9YZETB0RQHv-CYjnMJ0fQYism1RgHCHVCKlOhLHtBux0-LILcByPikKYSQQUHLxQWtNTzmme2Bfm/s1600/WolvesWithinND_Still02.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC_OQlgqLdgPxY05JSI6O_LB2wyIGJ2hYjH4NhJccGA7KQl6lIBOjN5dV_C6V8yqXx9YZETB0RQHv-CYjnMJ0fQYism1RgHCHVCKlOhLHtBux0-LILcByPikKYSQQUHLxQWtNTzmme2Bfm/s400/WolvesWithinND_Still02.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5759153520305353650" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcua_jstuexfEndNubkEcY6k8F0BNh9vuYNAcEcQW4GTPQJxgEy9_19V7EIKN7s9jRT6vBItQ7mubMd9T-FBnhDQR_70JxUkrfZFO9ZbUoW0JQzo3toL9fs5HxOFI83q-Q2m8f8fsX-md1/s1600/WolvesWithinND_Still04.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcua_jstuexfEndNubkEcY6k8F0BNh9vuYNAcEcQW4GTPQJxgEy9_19V7EIKN7s9jRT6vBItQ7mubMd9T-FBnhDQR_70JxUkrfZFO9ZbUoW0JQzo3toL9fs5HxOFI83q-Q2m8f8fsX-md1/s400/WolvesWithinND_Still04.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5759153510380461394" border="0" /></a><br /></center><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Business Card</span><br />My business card design that I will be using.

It may be a little rough in places as things are still in the works.<br /><br />Once more, the aim is to capture a moment of flight of Volan and his island as he soars the skies. It relies much on tone and atmosphere which is slowly built up with the reveal of the island and the openness of sound.<br /><br /><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/2PjCFnvEjbM" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" width="560"></iframe><br /><br />The logic behind the camera movement is to follow the reaction of the island as Volan prepares the island to turn. As Volan pulls a lever the camera pans down to see the reaction of the movment of the chain(s), to the emission of the chimney and the turning wheels. We then make our way to the underside of the island to see the wings adjust their position accordingly to bank the island off into the distance.<br /><br />There are a number of refinements to be had, but any feedback is much appreaciated!Leo Tsanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13684302634173273006noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598213750658936652.post-47251361979638522872012-04-28T17:33:00.003+01:002012-04-28T17:44:31.309+01:00Character Volan TextureWhile I'm continuing to work on other areas of the project, here's a quick update on Volan with his textures finalised.

Coming of age, he has adapted to the new conditions of the world and is determined to find signs of any other survivors. The style and aesthetic should be ideal for the whimsical tone of the piece, where I imagine finer details will be resolved when translating the design into a 3D space. Additional props include pouches, a compass, telescope and case. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglYC5EHc_cSUrNnjAbqRjuEs3qNkOVVDGsVUIfsTSrRrI06QPnHzNoqZxK0Oumg0ehqq4gnZCiYhoonE6oq4V9ZJKnMf9uOS9dByUVYQ-pz5IhBEXweK_4hLMNqp-uvpr56u7yMU9o9i6p/s1600/Volan01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 270px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglYC5EHc_cSUrNnjAbqRjuEs3qNkOVVDGsVUIfsTSrRrI06QPnHzNoqZxK0Oumg0ehqq4gnZCiYhoonE6oq4V9ZJKnMf9uOS9dByUVYQ-pz5IhBEXweK_4hLMNqp-uvpr56u7yMU9o9i6p/s400/Volan01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5715718317269451922" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyLqeF1xI5W0YoEcjny3j_i9FHnYd9z7JUDRrQ4a2ZwfdLwtiLUZfSiYqPAjHd2Vn9fEvF8kQDaFuc4mwp0Y-H7rlHAjQDY6YXI3j-dawM143yfrZXiWt25lrMc4f4lb7CW1SSeXRGZqs5/s1600/CharacterSketches03.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 283px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyLqeF1xI5W0YoEcjny3j_i9FHnYd9z7JUDRrQ4a2ZwfdLwtiLUZfSiYqPAjHd2Vn9fEvF8kQDaFuc4mwp0Y-H7rlHAjQDY6YXI3j-dawM143yfrZXiWt25lrMc4f4lb7CW1SSeXRGZqs5/s400/CharacterSketches03.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5715718319108285954" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Soon things will be moving into production as I wrap up the ends of preproduction.Leo Tsanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13684302634173273006noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598213750658936652.post-66433425642171493592012-02-26T10:36:00.002+00:002012-02-26T10:36:00.804+00:00Storyboard + PrevisAfter putting ideas together as a quick storyboard, I went straight ahead to put the piece together as an initial previs, particularly in the light that it would be difficult to convey the clear camera movement that is needed within a 2D animatic. As such, we are presented with a moment of flight with Volan and his island as he searches and soars the skies. <br /><br /><object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4wQNX3-ubw0?version=3&hl=en_GB"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4wQNX3-ubw0?version=3&hl=en_GB" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFRFbUlQ0u1ZqanRBlbOCdmCozKcAAyfdU-BXF2lGdMrBNY0QKpTypSCTQEgxBEEL8yvn9NJHYBc_ze2MIOLpjGQg_2aJrOKopotUSzKwTF7bRg8YmdtsbuvGos0NKkfkXUCqFDoA9tYvX/s1600/Previs01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFRFbUlQ0u1ZqanRBlbOCdmCozKcAAyfdU-BXF2lGdMrBNY0QKpTypSCTQEgxBEEL8yvn9NJHYBc_ze2MIOLpjGQg_2aJrOKopotUSzKwTF7bRg8YmdtsbuvGos0NKkfkXUCqFDoA9tYvX/s400/Previs01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713283786638913906" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdbPMxTzIzAFcoRUmufrLKVyigFVfL43QhLCj5Z2EtWDNYnU95WhUoW-Iqs2TgN4EqWOhuD86mtkZD50LRmPqkHqXBhVLd2HCnzvvOoeqsGLHivt_rRDfW9cpRT3E6fsvMPe1wjA4AbX7G/s1600/Storyboard01.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 283px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdbPMxTzIzAFcoRUmufrLKVyigFVfL43QhLCj5Z2EtWDNYnU95WhUoW-Iqs2TgN4EqWOhuD86mtkZD50LRmPqkHqXBhVLd2HCnzvvOoeqsGLHivt_rRDfW9cpRT3E6fsvMPe1wjA4AbX7G/s400/Storyboard01.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5713283793367425282" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The piece relies much on tone and atmosphere which is slowly built up with the reveal of the island and the openness of sound. These initial sound effects and camera movements will undoubtedly go through further refinements, but they begin to capture the right tonality of the piece that I am trying to convey. <br /><br />Building a quick mockup of the home and island has helped to resolve and generate new ideas to the piece and designs as a whole. I am eager to resolve these elements with the character of Volan being of next priority.Leo Tsanghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13684302634173273006noreply@blogger.com2
