Favorite Game Cinematic Studies.

Why the sudden of sonic topic today?

The reasons why i would like to talk about it is because it's the most impact moment to me today when a site i've pass by during research just reminds me HOW TERRIBLE the new project of sonic is. The Sonic Boom.

WOW,

I must say, MUCH BOOOOOM alright!. Much Much Boom to me.

The moment when i recall how the designs in sonic boom game doesn't make sense.

How the height doesn't make sense. And how INSANE KUNCKLES LOOK.

not to be rude or anything. Just Nintendo has been letting the 3rd party doing and changing too much.

Where sonic starts to become to sucky from one game to another.

SOMEONE out there or some hero or heroine must stop NINTENDO  for letting extra ppl doing experiments on sonic.

BECAUSE SONIC IS NOT A WHITE MICE! IT'S THE 90s' GAME HERO!

this must to be stop. I sense very bad things will be happening if this doesn't stop. And when they abandon the designs like sonic colors and sonic generations. THE ICONIC FACE FEATURES MUST REMAIN.

AND THE HEIGHT AND THE BODY MUST MAKE SENSE.

I am done saying what i should say.

I really like the animations for sonic boom. Just the concept has change too much compare to the original looking of how sonic and friends should look like. It has gone to the extend where sonic fans can't accept this no more.

Up till now, Sonic Colors is still the best 3D sonic ever made for my opinion.

From Concept to story to character development to gameplay to rendering to opening ending cinematic.

It's like every sonic fans dream come true for wanting a best 3D sonic ever made

Personally i really like how they plan for this opening game cinematic.

especially the slow mo parts and around 1.12 - 1.15.

and 1.28 till the end. how the spaceship flies to the sky and continue to the sence where the evil bomb takes the point where the spaceship disappears.

And another best one from sonic has to be 'Sonic Unleashed'.

The color scheme and planning of the flow is very good even though the gameplay is not that convincing.

Sonic unleashed, it's most likely the most michael bay ALIKE game i've ever seen. LOL.

not to say it's bad, but the explosions for one particular spaceship is crazy.

Been working on sth i've never shown to anyone. LOL. alil of peek.

Gestures Studies 210314 Basketball

I was studying and watching NBA match between Bulls and Lakers 

and capture some of the beautiful

gestures during the match. 

Each of the gestures for this in the scene is quite fast, 

so i train myself to snapshot the pose as mike said.

"Look once and throw it away the reference"

This is what i remember very clearly from him.

And using the shot we have lock down in our brain and enhance the poses.

I try to remember and make it more dynamic for the poses so it is more eye catching.

It is really hard at first but after the 3rd gesture i am starting to get use to it.

and actually there are another 20 gestures i didn't want to show it here.

Some i just want to keep it to myself for future use.

not selfish but...yeah.

But I always can make nice gestures during drawing...

but i don't understand why i can't do the same when it comes to animation.

I've always have this seal inside me i can't break.

which is.

T.E.C.H.N.I.C.A.L

Guess i need twice the training for technical posing.

Still trying my best.

Now i am trying to acheive daily must do and daily gesture drawings.

and i am getting the hang of it.

AND I STILL NEED MY OWN TIME FOR BASKETBALL PHYSICALLY!!!

NOT JUST DRAWING,

I 

WANT

TO

FEEL

IT

MYSELF!

For this, I try to capture the form of the pose and also change the hands and legs position.

And then kise from kuroko no basket just pops out in my mind because i started to 

miss it so much.

so i ended up to use him for this particular pose study.

I have to say today is a quite productive day for me.

Fun watching the match, much amazed and much pose studies.

i hope in the future i can be more faster when it comes to drawing and capturing the gestures.

Instead of watching other ppl's animation.

Watching so sports match really can help alot too. 

I was searching Miami Heat's Le Bron's best moments of the match and i saw this

Alot of dynamic poses. 

Some are quite interesting like when he spins and shoot three pointers.

Exhaustion overloaded.

hi hi. this is my very first post for blogger. @ __ @
i remembered i used to have a blog but i don't remember the username and whatsoever.
so i decided to make a new one, where i share what i want to, normally will be my life or events that are memorable and arts :)

i sincerely love to draw figures and characters.

today i had my 3D animation demo reel... oh wait, it's 8/8 2:30am and i said 'today'. actually should be yesterday by now. stupid me. >__<

everyone's animation is very nice and smooth while for mine i feel like mine is completely crap. :(
my understanding of animation is just too shallow. D': i need more time :(

but oh well.... i've tried my best ;'[ and i'll do my best to revise everything this sembreak. same goes to my modelling. i am insecure lately, i've found that my technical skills is very bad indeed. while i am stronger traditionally and in non 3D stuff. i keep asking myself everynight before i go into sleep.

"...is this really for me?"

i questioned myself.

it is the MOST difficult question to me.

i can't seem to give an answer to this question.

i am more interested and more passionate when it comes to drawing and stuff. but when it comes to technical. i am very weak. i am struggling.

struggling so bad.

i must improve my technical skills this sembreak. and i really missed my figure classes and traditional painting classes so bad. this whole sem my sketch book is only used for 20% which is quite surprising... it's like the whole time you spend is on computer now. i miss the feeling of holding pencils and brushes.

like. really.

parents are here. keeps nagging me why am i going to bed so late.
all i do is group discussions and keep on drawing.
somemore i am heading down to singapore tomorrow. which
doesn't really make me happy, instead it makes me triple times the worry.
i still have quite alot of refinements to do and i am heading to singapore?

like... how am i suppose to be happy?
work to me right now, is the most priority thing in my life.

after joining TOA. i've found and learnt that.

"even one second saves you alot of time for doing assignments and helps fully manage your time well if you don't waste it."

another thing i've learnt that is,

"procrastination comes when you lose your interest and love for doing your work"

this is due to the 'sienz' and 'give up' attitude.

another big thing i've learnt in my life,

"why do you need to care for someone when they don't even want to give a care bout you."

this. i've learnt from quite some of the people around me.
thanks to them, i know to be wiser and not to be miserable.

and i also want to thanks to some people i used to mad or sad over them before for not thinking i am 'those' kind of people. while they understand my emotional problems. i really appreciate that and they still treat me as a friend while same goes to me. this is the most precious thing i've realize during my life in this semester.






i just want to say that, to people who asked me to leave them alone or pushed me away.
i'll go away. and won't bother you the rest of my life.

cause i can say that this is,

the only thing that hurts me the most. and it will never cure me.
my heart can't take it no matter how cheerful and optimistic i am.

and it's been a semester that i've stopped COOKINGGGGGGG.
this
is
UN-ACCEPT-ABLE---------------------------!

i think my skills for cooking went GG already ; _________ ;

semester break, so short yet so much wanna do.

so my classmate has alot of cool series i don't know about.
he was watching fallen skies in the lab and i tag along to watch as well.
it is mmm i have to say it is quite interesting. o - o
i somehow like it but i don't know why talking always makes me yawn  no matter how awesome
the movie or series is. D:

bad meow is bad.

and thanks to him i can start to watch and get to know more bout DC ^^

since today is the second last presentation~
me and my best friend jinyee went hardcore sketching when we're having sushi for dinner at
a restaurant called 'SUSHI FLASH'

this restaurant is my favourite restaurant.
it has the cheapest and most fresh sushi in the whole selangor.

and here are some of the drawings i've did ^_____^

this is for my friend in japan AIKU.

i've known her through　アメバ　ブロク.

which is a japanese blog. :) 

i've talk to her through messenger

and she seems to be pissing off at someone.

(sorry private~)

so i've decided to draw something for her :)
