Donnerstag, 16. Juni 2011. Class 3 - Week 12 - Progress Reel. Now its kind of official, Class 3 is over. The three month felt like 3 weeks. It's so awesome to see all the animations by my classmates and see there animjam or single shots come together. The next class is going to introduction to acting. I'm really looking forward to use the bishop rig in the middle of the term. The next week will be all about searching dialogues and refining some ideas I have for my first acting shot. Class 3 - Week 11.

Thanos Kousis Animation Blog: August 2013
http://thanoskousis.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 12, 2013. Progression of a Scene. So, the initial inspiration for this one came from the audio clip of course. After that, I decided to do some quick sketches that I would use as sort of a storyboard to organize the staging and the cuts of the scene. After that, reference had to be shot and a layout test had to be done in order to show how the characters would move into the space and how the camera angls would work into the whole scene. And into the animation! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, April 29, 2013. Cruella De Vil Pencil Test. As reference I used a dance move taken from a video clip of the tv show "Glee":. Being used to working with a computer, I found this opportunity to make a hand drawn animation test very interesting and challenging! Bottom line, yes the drawings are very rough and there could be some more inbetweens, the movement arcs could be more defined but at the end of the day this was a very enjoyable exercise while away of the computer.

Thanos Kousis Animation Blog: Playing with "The Swing" ( A Tribute to Disney)
http://thanoskousis.blogspot.com/2013/12/playing-with-swing-tribute-to-disney.html
Thursday, December 26, 2013. Playing with "The Swing" ( A Tribute to Disney). It was fun seeing how this famous oil painting by Jean-Honoré Fragonard affected the last couple of fairytale Disney animated films. And finally, as some of you know, the painting was used again in the latest Disney film "Frozen, a retelling of "The Snow Queen" tale, when Anna, the protagonist, jumps in pose in front of the painting in a musical sequence near the beginning of the film.

Thursday, July 4, 2013. Yzma Doodles (from "Kingdom of the Sun"). However, I always thought that it was a pity that we didn't get to see Deja's Yzma in action. Actually, you can check some of his early work on the character in his blog at the following links:. Http:/ andreasdeja.blogspot.gr/2011/09/early-yzma.html.

Monday, April 23, 2012. Character Design - The Sorcerer. Anyway, here's an interesting guy I've been working on lately. The concept for this one came when I was trying to find new themes for potential future shots. So, he was created to ultimately star in one of my upcoming shots (at least I hope he will). Apart from the actual shot (which I hope to start animating soon) there are a couple of other things I'm planning to post about this guy. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Monday, September 3, 2012. Sculpture - The Sorcerer. Things have been going slow lately. I'll just blame it on summer. Anyway, truth is that summer wasn't just a good opportunity to take things slow and relax after the intense 18 months at animationmentor, it was also an opportunity to try new things and projects and play a little more with animation and art in general.
