Wei's Animation Blog: October 2011
http://wxyong.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, 31 October 2011. I start my animation internship at Framestore. I'm working in VFX department which is really exciting for me because I love films. Here's to a new experience in the film industry and I hope to learn loads from the amazing animators here! Monday, 17 October 2011. For the last 6 weeks I've been working on and off on a personal project. It's a trailer parody for Valve's newest game - Counter-Strike: Global Offensive which is coming out in 2012. And I did pretty much everything else!

Wei's Animation Blog: Some old animations from Uni
http://wxyong.blogspot.com/2012/12/some-old-animations-from-uni.html
Monday, 17 December 2012. Some old animations from Uni. For the record I thought I'd post some of my earlier animations when I was still a student at Teesside Uni:. This animation was done in my spare time during my Second Year at Uni to practise my first character performance animation. It was entered into the 11 second club. Competition of December 2008 and got 50th place. Later it was entered into the VIS awards (2009) and won me a Character Animation Award. Labels: 11 second club.

Wei's Animation Blog: New short anim
http://wxyong.blogspot.com/2013/03/new-short-anim.html
Saturday, 2 March 2013. It's been a while since I last did some good old stick figure flash animation and I had a blast! The core action/block was done in 1-2 days. Spent the remaining week detailing the animation and polishing. Overall, I still love the fact that I'm learning much from animating something as simple as a stick figure :).

Friday, 2 September 2011. Driver: San Francisco is out now! Check it out guys! This is the game I worked on while I was at Ubisoft Reflections. From 2009-2010. It was great to be a part of the animation team and I learned a lot from everyone. The game is out today (in the UK). If you've played it, let me know what you think! PS This is also my first credited game! Labels: driver: san francisco. 2 September 2011 at 13:21. Can you point out any particular animation you did in the trailer or game?

Wei's Animation Blog: May 2013
http://wxyong.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, 4 May 2013. Troll Walk Animation Test. Watch in HD - Click here. I wanted to practice animating something other than human characters so did this test on the Tiny rig. Upon reflection, there are a few things I would do differently - primarily making it more "troll-like" in it's posing and overall movement. Anyway, I thought I'd archive this animation and leave it as it is. There's always next time! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Troll Walk Animation Test. Animation Tips and Tricks.

Wei's Animation Blog: September 2011
http://wxyong.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 28 September 2011. Some work from Cubic Motion. I can finally post about some of my work at Cubic Motion since it's now released as samples for the website. This here is an example of capture-driven animation:. This type of animation specifically requires strict adherence to the video reference capturing every subtlety made by the actor. A lot more time consuming to clean up and get right. I was responsible for the animation and lighting. Friday, 2 September 2011. Check it out guys!
