SQUIRREL!

It isn't just the animation that is always amazing with Pixar but also their writers and sense of humor. I love the"SQUIRREL!" parts of the movie Up. How many talking dog movies have you ever seen? Most of them seem to be too close to personifying the dog as a person rather than as a dog with doggie traits.

Knockout 2

This animation is a remake of my original second part of my Knockout Poster project which uses Adobe After Effects to create an animation of the poster. In the animation I chose to have the poster become the climax of a dynamic introduction that portraits Knockout as a world champion boxer. Using the sidescroll text sequence of the name in combination with the iconic Rocky Balboa theme song. The end of the movie is the pasting of the broadsheet and hanging of the gloves to bring a cohesive whole to the piece and it’s connection to the poster.

Good Afternoon Jumpers

Just thought I would share this because it ran through my head yesterday as I drove down to Orange, Virginia to see three good friends go skydiving for one of their birthdays. I'm not a fan of open heights but after seeing it and the safety that goes into skydiving I'm seriously reconsidering my position. I think I may have to jump out of a plane And you have to love Pixar, the animation, the stories and their great sense of humor. :)
