Art dump.

Adding some new wips that I'm working on.

I've been depressed lately, and I'm trying to get back onto a functioning level. So to that end, I decided to revisit some old sketches and ink them in Illustrator, I love the clean lines that illustrator gives and I really feel it helps my work stand out in a new light that I haven't seen before. That makes me feel less crappy and hopefully will put me back in a more productive mode.

Kudos if you recognize some of these :)

BIRTHDAY!!!

Hey all!

For those of you keeping up with my blog, thanks!!!
Unfortunately, I will not be updating this blog this Sunday because it's my birthday!

See you guys next week!

So update for this week includes

- 2 new videos in the graphic design page. I added a couple of scenes I worked on from Oberto. You can find them here:

Oberto Graphic Design

Just scroll down and you'll see them.

- 2 animation quickies have been added as well. And like before, you can see them
here:

Anim 5 & 6

Just scroll down and click!

Also added to my animation collection are an extra video that is not an animation, but a scene I composited in After Effects. This scene used chroma keys and a jpeg image and put together to create the scene.

you can see the videos at your pleasure in the animation page.

That's it for now! Look forward to showing some more new stuff in a couple of weeks.

So here we are.

Many things have been happening in my life all at once these days. I got married. Had a kid about a year ago. WOW! I'm a dad. It's crazy. but professionally? What have I been doing? Well, teaching and Freelancing! I'm contemplating uploading a showcase of my student's work in the near future but for now, this blog is still my online portfolio.

So as to that, I've made a few changes and rearranged some things!

I added Graphic Design work! Feel free to check it out in the tab above.

Anyway, as to how things will be going along:  I'm going to try to update this site on a biweekly basis. Every other Sunday.

I'll be adding more animation soon as well. Including a new demo reel! My new reel will consist of my more recent work that I have done this year.

pay attention to the home page as this will be the place I upload gesture sketches, line art, and random thoughts!

Also, because I've been nagged to death about it, I will upload several tutorials on my workflow.

All will be coming in the very near future. Please look out for it!

UPDATE!!!

Updated my Resume and Animation portions of my blog.

The resume is now up to date with my comings and goings on what I have been up to professionally as of late.
I'm currently an adjunct instructor at Westwood college, teaching animation fundamentals at the Northlake campus here in Atlanta Ga.

I also did a quick stint at Floyd County! Studio known for the animated show Archer and Chozen.
Granted, I did the first pass but the retakes and what the end result of some of the shots came to look like was slightly different from what I did. That's to be expected in production.

It's a shame that when I update my pages separately, they don't seem to connect to the home page. Not sure how I'm going to fix this problem, or if I will fix this problem as I might start working on a website for myself.

seems about time...

Oh!!! one more bit of news.. STUDIO MADNIS LLC is officially real!!!! Any Commission or freelance work from here on in will go under this company. I hope to build a bigger clientele by providing production quality animation at a reasonable cost! If you require animation, Contact me so we can work something out. cheers!

Please feel free to check out my online portfolio that is this blog!

New Animations!

You can check out some new animations I posted in the animation tab! Every Wednesday evening, I am going to try to continually post new animations. Feel free to check out and critique!

Cheers!
