My very first entry on 11 second club

http://www.11secondclub.com/competitions/september12/ente

Rated 4.5. I know, that means it just decent. But again, look its my first work here on 11 second club. For a first time, i think its not bad at all. It was  a great experience all together. All the way from acting it out, to sketches, to thumbnails, making sure that i am on the right track, working working working then fix ups after fix ups. It was awesome!!! Again seeing other's works. There were some which gave me confidence but same time there were few which made me think Good lord these guys are good.
I am definitely taking part in the next months competition. this time i want to make it to best 50. It is going to be a bit tough.
 In October's competition I want to include lighting as well. I want to make use of this site.
Now on You will be seeing more and more of my works.

Har Har Mahadev.







Here in India we have 330 million Gods. Can you believe that, 330 million!!!  They are not there just  for a name sake, they all have names, designation, duties and even their own vehicles. I can explain. If you want to prosper in wealth, go meet Goddess Lakshmi. If u want Education, meet Saraswathy. You want to get rid of obstaccles Lord Ganpati is your man. Like that, every god has their own duties and roles.

They are not all. There are 3 other gods whom we consider the gods of the whole universe. They are the big guys. They are called Thrimurthys. They are Bhrahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara. Bhrahma The creator, Vishnu The Preserver and then Shiva, The destroyer.

 Shiva is considered as the destroyer of evil also he is the purest of all. He doesn't know anything. He is not partial towards devas neither the demons. For him all are equal. He smokes marijuana
( yes he does, how cool is that huh ), He is an awesome dancer, He is a lover, He is a perfect father,  and what not. He is Mr. Perfect. He is my favourite of all.

And that is why when i saw the blank wall outside my room, i decided it should be shiva there on that wall. I didn't wait for long, straight away i changed my clothes, borrowed dad's old scooter and went to the market to get all the accessories to draw my lord on my wall.
This is my first ever drawing on a wall. And i am glad that i chose him.

Lip sync




This is another work i have been doing last few days along with Itchy ears. In this one I concentrated  more on the lip sync.
I found this character Andy her online. This character was rigged so efficiently that we have so many options that we can play around with his looks. Even we can change its gender. Still I had few troubles while animating Andy. Andy's facial expressions were quite limited. Especially when it comes to his eye brows. The movements aren't really visible. Like we all know the eyes and its movements plays a great deal when it comes to reading one's expressions and facial excitements. Apart from these facts, I am really glad to work with Andy and I am looking forward to put up more works with this rig. 

Itchy Ears..



Hello there. How you guys been? Hope you all had an exciting week just like I had. I have been quite busy working on 2 projects, Itchy ears and Lip sync.
Meet Blake. He got issues. I mean he got issues with his ear. He got an itchy ear. Between me and Blake, we have something in common. We both have itchy ear.  I have been working on Andy for the last few days and my ears were killing me. I felt awful, couldn't concentrate well on Andy, and i was thinking it's high time I should do something about my ears. And that's when it clicked!! why not make something out of itchy ears. Right away opened up my Drive: F and went through all the rigs I have. And i found my man, Blake.
There is alot to tell you about Blake. Blake got an incredible rig in the first place. Just like Andy we can play around his looks. Blake is not bald, he comes with hair too and also he could turn black. Unlike Andy, We have more control over Blake's facial controls.
The main reason i chose Blake over Andy is that he got eye brows. Trust me, it makes a lot of difference. I will be uploading my work on Andy soon and you will see it. 'Cos its very difficult to see his eye brows movements. Like His expressions always looks the same. He always looks surprised, just because he doesn't have eye brows. In that case I am really happy, working with Blake.
In this video, i have been concentrating more on the expressions and actions of the character. I wanted to show the pain i go through every day having an itchy ear.
Thank you Blake You served me very well.
