Sony Imageworks

So this summer I was lucky enough to get an internship at Sony Pictures Imageworks. It was an 8 week internship and it was awesome. I got to meet a lot of really cool people plus I got to animate all day for 8 weeks straight. Saweet!!!!! It was really awesome to see how the industry really works. I think the only down side was that I had to use Linux, which at first was really annoying, but once I got use to it , it was not so bad. Anyway here are some pictures. So I got to go to Siggraph and got to meet my two favorite animators Glen Keane and Eric Goldberg. ( I do not have a picture of Eric Goldberg.) Also in the common area there were vicious Ratbirds AHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Here is a clown that I have been modeling for forever. Maybe one day he will be done. I would draw him while waiting for playblasts And yes I know it looks like he is falling over and I do not care. Below are some studies from Sword in the Stone. I was really itching to do some Traditional animation and I still am wanting to. Here is an old lady character that I desgined while at Six Flags ( what an amazing theme Park) She as going to be traditionally animated but that never happened. So this was another thing that I would do while waiting for playbalsts... I would do frame by frame studies of animation clips. So here is one from beginning chase scene in Aladdin. One day we had an event after work and some of the story artists were drawing caricatures. So I had to get some. The first one is by Chris Pearn and the second one is by Cody Cameron. And here is my beat up Sony Badge. I do not know why it got so beat up.
