Alrighty been a while since I last posted on here, been really busy with the Thesis Animation. I'm Collaborating with a two other animators, both traditional, Casey Parkhurst, and Brandon Waltman. We will be finishing out film within a couple of weeks. I am responsible for all the 3d animation, as well as compositing, timing out animation frames, and special effects. Casey is responsible for the human character animation, and Brandon for the Bird character. They each contribute to backgrounds, and background animation.
