2016 Animation Demo Reel from Sagar Arun on Vimeo.

Made a reel for the internships I'm applying to!

LipSync "T-Rex Toys"

"T-Rex Toys" WIP from Sagar Arun on Vimeo.

Ok it turns out this is the hardest thing I've had to do, and it was really challenging. I kinda put myself in the deep end, but I learnt a lot from it. Still work in progress.

LipSync Planning

I decided to do a lipsync and started planning before I went into CG. I know that this isn't an amazing clear cut plan but it gives me an idea of what I need to do in CG.

Animation Excercises: Quadfecta

.Quadfecta from Sagar Arun on Vimeo.

These are animation exercises that I did in school. We had to do a walk, an in and out of the walk, and a turn take. I gotta say, that swing was one of the hardest things I've done so far, mechanics wise. It's kinda working, but I'm not totally happy with it.

The turn take feels better to me, and I'm happy with it. Plus, I learned a lot.

Animation Exercises: Mechanics

Over the winter I did a couple of animations that really helped me understand mechanics and weight. These aren't perfect, but they helped me learn how to break down properly in stepped and how to space in spline.

                Had a lot of fun with this! Looking back on it, I think I should've planned it out a bit more but I'm relatively happy with the way it came out. Lip-syncs are really fun, but mouth shape are really hard. I learnt a lot though.

Simple Poly: Planning

  Recently I've been told by an animator to plan ahead before I dive into CG; he said to spend as much time planning as animating, and for this new animation project I've really been taking that to heart for this one. I finished animating this guy but I had little time to polish.
