A trip to Ludwigsburg

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

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.

Baba Yaga

I have made the final design for the main character Baba Yaga and the mood picture for the scene at home.

Designs for Yaga

I have made the next designs of my Character. Also some examples for the forest inhabitants.

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!

Designs_Baba Yaga

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

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

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.
