Term 4 Week 1 - Acting 101

Term 4 begins!!! Hooray I've been waiting for this for sooo long! Even my degree course in animation taught us nothing on this subject!!!

My mentor for this term is David Tart - I am extremely excited to start my learning with him, especially after watching his great reel of work and the fact that he worked on films such as monsters inc. and finding nemo! Great stuff!

The lecture this week, host by Dreamworks animator Dave Burgess, covered an entire overview of acting within animation and live action. We went over how to approach acting, how to get clarity into your work and the general do's and dont's in acting.

Anyway I'm updating the blog early this week to get some of my planning put on here - I need to know if its clear to the audience.

My latest version: I've changed the acting beats to Tired / Angry! Enjoy :)

 
And my crude video reference:-






Old Versions:
Acting beats: Tired and half asleep / shocked, worried

Improved timing??

  1. I love the contrast between the idea of only just getting out of bed, and the sudden panic, brilliant contrast, makes the audience wake up with him! So simple and so effective, a brilliant start!
