The process of character designing is an amazing work of deciding and trying. Today I am satisfied with the results but I am not sure about tomorrow. I think that designing something need a time to be able to find out new ideas. But we all are looking for the “happy end” too. 

FANTOCHE AND „UP“

2009-09-14T13:42:00.001+02:00

This year I had luck to visit the Fantoche, International Animation Festival in Baden, Switzerland. My short film “Baba Yaga” was selected to the program what was really nice for me.
Although the place of the Festival is rather small but it gathers a diverse public and presents various programs. The organization is really nice and friendly. It is familiar and comfortable.
Fantoche has also presented “Up” from Pixar and also organized the Making off about designing characters in 3D. I have watched the film for the first time there and it was really great. Surprisingly it was screened in German language! What I found really strange for the international festival as well as for the country with four official state languages. In spite of the language it was nice to observe the great successful changes in the visual storytelling. I really enjoyed the smooth natural look of the film. It resembles painting a lot. Of course the great work of designers and animators are just perfect in the Disney/Pixar quality. I just can imagine what a treasury lays on the artist shelves at Disney and Pixar. They do really amazing creative job! These character designs, colors, backgrounds etc. Everything looks like an amazing work of research and a lot of doings and at the end they pick out the best results and put it in one beautiful peace. I would say it is a crazy coordinated work. And I think I can learn a lot from that amazing artist stuff.
As for the story I was quite interested about the new concept that the main character would be the old man. And it works! Of course Disney always does it in the funny and high entertainment way. (High quality animation too!) And also if you know all the gags you cannot ignore it. You should laugh or you are dead.
Looking forward to watch the next film from the biggest animation studio and at the time enjoy the making off stuff at the Disney/Pixar bloggers!!!

After a drawing workshop with children, I have found that they are really very motivated. I would like to make some drawing lessons with children in the future.

for my film I would like to have a guardian angel that really admires grill fish. Do you think you can understand it? Can you imagine that you like grill fish?

A trip to Ludwigsburg

2008-05-13T01:14:00.010+03:00

once upon a time the old friends from North America and Europe have made a wonderful walk in the small nice town Ludwigsburg. Nobody would ever go there but it happens to be there the very successful Academy of Film. And that is why the 4 friends have made a trip to this unknown germane town. One nice student has taken the travel under her control. And here is a small foto session. See you later....

how beautiful it is...

Baba Yaga is

2008-02-27T00:26:00.002+02:00

I am happy to announce that my funny short film Baba Yaga is ready!!!!! The presentation is on the 28^th of February in Caligary cinema in Ludwigsburg. The production plan was very intensive, 4 month for everything, but also very productive. For the first time I have tried to make an animation with a classic storyline. It is also my first funny children animation. I am looking forward for the presentation in cinema.

2007-11-12T10:16:00.000+02:00

I am working further on the main Character Yaga. Especially interesting is to find the simplified shape for the head and hair. I really like this unusual long nose!

2007-11-09T00:38:00.000+02:00

There is my first result for the character Yaga. As you can see I have tried some different shapes and forms for the body and face. After this exercise I have found one more interesting for me design. I want that Baba Yaga isn’t very old und very fat but in some way untidy. The long chin and nose are the main attributes for Yaga. And the body should be a little bit bony owing to arms and hands.

Sketchround

2007-11-08T14:49:00.000+02:00

Here are some sketches from the Sketchround evening. I have tried to catch the main face features on the portraits. And very interesting exercise was with a face expression where we should draw one expression and than to make it more and more explicit. I think that it isn’t very strong one but it is a nice exercise.

Characters for Baba Yaga

2007-11-07T15:02:00.001+02:00

Hello!

I am working on my next short film “ Baba Yaga” that should be made in 2D animation. I think to produce it with a new for me application TVPaint.

At a time I am looking for nice and appealing Characters. There are some sketches for the main Figures.
