Hot Dog Time - Stop Motion


Hot Dog Time - Stop Motion from Wendy Nguyen on Vimeo.

Stop Motion with a group of four, each of us sculpted our own characters, design the background, animate them, and take countless of shots to make this production possible. Amazing team!

Screechy


Owls are my most favorite creature, especially a Screech Owl. They are tiny, loud, and even look mean.

It used to be scorpion but because I received a framed dead one as a birthday gift (it was a cruel joke), I couldn't even look at one anymore. So owl it is...

Getting more familiar using Illustrator. :)

Daily Habits


I've never use Illustrator. Never like it. Now that I'm learning it, I love it! This is my first assignment in using Illustrator and the only reason why I'm uploading this is because the topic for creating the 'dingbats' is funny!

Sculpture Quetzalcoatl





My first completed sculpture! The design is from my friend, Javier. Took many weeks to finish and Javier was a picky client. In the end, it was well worth it.

I got a critique from a professional sculpture, Lesley Padin, to add scars and scratches on him. It will show more to his personality. Must finish more!

Asset_Backgrounds







Forest concepts for our Animation Studio class. The theme is steampunk in Alice in Wonderland: Jabberwocky and was told to draw lots of pipes, gauges, etc. Added leaves to some of the 'bushes' to give it a more organic look to it.

Color Script


For Animation Studio. I drew the background as a concept for environment and added the colors afterwards to show lighting. It was scrap later during the quarter though.

Creature_Final

Was told this looks like it should belong in Labyrinth. I think it's the coloring! Influences from a chinese creature, Kilin. Topic for this creature was from a Pegasus. Even though he doesn't look no where NEAR like it but still a companion to the hero as one.

Random Creatures Drawing


Just random creatures drawing. I'm just mixing heads and bodies together.

Environments

Playing with mood lighting in a simple environment design. Bottom left is the original as I was practicing using value.

Working on more environments. Just playing with brushes. 2 hrs.

Testing_3


If only I didn't mess up with the watercolor painting, it wouldn't turn out so...brown. Testing with watercolors.
