I joined the 11Secondclub competition of December.It was a lot of fun to do some key frame animation again (ended up fourth by the way)You can find a high ress version at their website

Since I have barely no time any more to work on my (Animation Mentor) Short,I decided to upload my final version of what I have animated right now.So this is only the last part of the short in polished animation. The models have no armour, props yet and are not textured, lightened and rendered. But I don't think I will have time to finish it anyway. So I see it as a good learning process (I can

I got a bit distracted lately by this little side project.At the 24th of October my baby-girl was born; Mae Elisabeth Marjolein Assink!This new rig (the Mae_1.0) will be fully animated by herself. The only thing I can do is watch and be entertained!...or, well, something like that.enjoy one of the first renders, doesn't she look well textured!!-have to stop talk nerdy now, otherwise there will be

Yeah! I made it to the Animation Mentor Summer Showcase 2009. The first two animations are from me. Its a BIG honour to be on a reel filled with so many great animations! My special thanks for Juus Piek, who delivered some awesome audio again (for both animations)check out the reel at this link: SHoWCASE 2009

In this version you can see the Layout.So everything (camera and models) is set up in 3D.The timing and shots are set. Ready for the next step: animation.-There is no sound under this clip-

So this semester we started the Short Film Pre-Production.Part of this job is making an Animatic (some kind of moving storyboard)so the timing and story of the film should be readable.There is no sound yet. I hope to get that in soon.

This is my Class 04 Assignment of Animation Mentor. We had about six weeks to create this animation on top of a sound file you had to find yourself (my audio file is from Idiocracy)UPDATE: just decided I will finish the last two classes (where you have to create your own Short)... so that you know :)

I now reached my last semester at Animation Mentor (class4)As I just started with the Dialogue shot (two characters acting) here you can see my just finished monologue shot.The assignment was simple: get an acted sound line from a film and animate the character on this piece of dialogue. In my case I got the line from Will Farrel in the Wedding Crashers

So, since I stopped for one semester at Animation Mentor, I have some time to spend at rendering my shots of my last assignments.This one is still from semester 2, where the assignment was to get Stu to make a jump and land. Well, I started with the landing and made him jump after. And I also scaled Stu in such a way he became a weird looking huge creature (I first collored him green, but my

I just finished this Short animation, actually it is more one of Animation Mentor assignments which got a bit out of hand.I just liked the little character with the tail, and so I had to make this little story out of it...Thanks to Juus Piek's sound design, which is great again!And of course thanks to Animation Mentor's rig "Tailor" and my class 1 Mentor James Chiang.
