Gate Background Progress

An update on my background coloring! This is for a scene from my film, well a few scenes, and its almost there! I still need to add a bunch of bushes and trees and things, the drawbridge, and the platform that it opens onto. I will probably bust out the paper tomorrow to finish it for good! Finals work is kicking my butt but it'll be all over soon!

CTN Model Drawings

Some model drawings done at CTN a few weeks ago. I haven't been able to do any since last May, so it was really nice to do figure sketches, even if it was only for a few minutes :) It was a couple, though I didn't do any good ones of the male, and they were dressed in 40s era clothing. Mobsters and guns kinda thing. They did some super fun poses! I hope they do it again next year.

Title Card!

Here's a wycinanki-style title card for my movie. Still not sure how to do the type... I may end up washing out the color a bunch so you can see the words once I put them on top. We'll see how it goes. :)

First Colored Scene!

First colored frame of my first completed scene!! I feel like I've passed a milestone for my film and I'll soon be able to bust out these puppies super quickly, though let's be honest... um, no. It's not completely done, though. I still  need to work out how to animate the leaves. I've done some tests but they aren't quite working out yet. I'm mainly focusing on my Mongol sequence, so hopefully I'll be able to post some new tests from that soon, once they stop looking so crappy :\

Bisnis Card

Here's the design for the back of my business cards :) I got them made for the CTN Animation Expo and now have a bunch to hand out despite giving away a lot of them already! The other side just has my name and a link to my portfolio blogspot (monicakozlowski.blogspot.com), because I haven't done enough research about buying my own domain and/or blogspot is one of few sites that support videos! Need my reel on my site for sure. Anyway, they turned out really cute! :3

Starting to Scan Movie Scenes!

My first scanned frame for my first cleaned scene! Excitiiiiiing! My friend Robbie helped in between some frames and now it's all ready for ToonBoom! I hope to have time tomorrow to color the scene completely before my meeting with my professor.

Background 14

Cut outs for a background for my film :) Made with painted water color paper, gouache on black paper, and black construction paper. I'm going to scan in and animate the leaf parts bc it's supposed to be windy in the scene.
