Animator vs Animation

網上火柴人打功夫動畫在當年曾經很hit,跟著有人把它放在TV廣告,跟風類似的東西很多,玩到殘...(最近葡萄式廣告也很類似)... 但以下這兩條片卻玩得很"攪鬼",玩火柴人還是其次,玩Flash 及 Window 的介面玩得很"盡"。Fun and Entertaining!


很有創意的動畫,玩盡Flash的界面裡的元素。正!!

這是 Part II 由Flash打到出 window。又是正!!

ウサビッチ usavich 監獄兔動畫




由引用自日本Kanaban Graphics做的動畫...描述兩隻兔子的監獄風雲。不是高成本的製作,統一的場景燈光、採用很多貼圖等,但故事及動畫相當抵死
有趣。很聰明的做法

IRONMAN Mighty Muggs Vinyl Figures


The form is simple and cute, I love it.
對於"可愛"這回事, 西方與東方的口味真的有這樣大的分別嗎! "Cute"的起源不都是來自"BB"嗎?

TinToy 28

T28-robo05-s
又是一塗鴉作品,工作至疲累時無意識地畫兩筆的那種。通常畫到這個完成度便收手,不會再"鬥"下去... I like paint in a loose way, tight enough :)

Marvel New CG Animation

最近 Marvel kids 在網上發表了 IRONMAN'S ADVENTURE 的CG動畫,質素相當高。分成了三部份,全片長約 4:38。以這製作質素及完成度,我想不會是TV animation...

Ironman's Adventure Part 1

Ironman's Adventure Part 2


Ironman's Adventure Part 3

除 Ironman 和 Spiderman 外,還有 Incredible Hulk。
Part 3可在 marvelkids 觀看。Blur Studio的製作, 對上一次 Marvel Ultimate Alliance CG Trailer 也是 Blur Studio的傑作

日本牛奶廣告『牛乳に相談だ。』


超正!這是日本人的創意,非常漫畫feel!

Recruitment Talk 後感

好幾天也沒有更新網誌。這星期大大小小問題忙得要命之餘,也要為了今天回母校"理大"舉行一個 Recruitment Talk 而準備。

這個Seminar 由School of Design籌備,內容介紹 imagi 及動畫製作的流程,希望有更多人認識animation這行業,為將來吸納更多新血而鋪路。而我主講有關創作及美術方面的運作。So far so good。我們的表現及現場的反應尚算滿意。不過相對於我們所投放的資源及預備。大會的安排及到場人數卻令人相當失望。

一個可坐多於80人的場地只有30多人出席,其實去之前我們也大概心中有數。Sem break中的星期六下午?真的要很有誠意才會出現... 另一方面,雖然個多星期前已按大會要求給了 Poster Artwork,今天在沿路上卻見不到任何宣傳海報。只有幾張只有文字地點指示。講座原定二時正開始,卻因為絕大多數人遲到而延至二時三十分。

這反應兩點:
· 大會對這講座的重視情度...
· 現今的大學生對守時的觀念...

在此一題Kim的表現很好呵!

American Kamen Rider


Keman Rider Dragon Knight 即美版"龍騎"於今年來推出。就像一貫Power Ranger的製作方式的,從新拍攝及改寫所有"文場戲"(即變身前)...充造型看似"娘娘"地,也有點像Terminator 3 的主角...
A new American version of Keman Rider, "Keman Rider Dragon Knight" will be released soon. Like the adaption way to produce "Power Ranger", all the story new and not sure all the action scenes will be kept.

Here's the pilot episode (the full 22-minute episode!) from Veoh.com:

Astroboy 1980's opening

See the real spirit of Astroboy!
