  Hey everyone! Long time, no blog

  Hey everyone,

  I've been really busy these last few months with getting my 3D short finished and also my website. I'm currently working on illustratios for a book, written by Daniel Barnes and also designing a website for a home cleaning business in Brooklyn, NY.

  I've got my 3D short called "Gramps and Webber" finished, but I still have to upload it somehow on youtube, before I post it on my website I'm making. I'm also doing two other versions of the short, with different textures and a more stylized evironment.

  For my Demo Reel, I'm actually redoing some of my older works and touching up on some others. I saw a few lighting and frame composition issues I wanted to change.

  You guys will probably start seeing a little less of me, once I get all of my projects off the ground.Well until next time, be easy everyone

  Time Flies By Fast

  Hey Everyone,

  I can't believe it's almost time for me to graduate from college and I'm getting ready to start my internship in the Fall at Cartoon Network. They accepted me into the trainee program, so I'm hoping they hire me on permantley. However, I'm still looking at other internships and companies, so I won't put all my eggs in one basket. I've decided to used the DJ86 as my official logo on all my business cards and demo reels.

  Speaking of demo reels, I'm currently working on mine, so I can send it out to every company I can. I'm also learning Dreamweaver, so I can build my own website to host my work on it. I've been tryig to upload my animations onto youtube and gamespot, but they are still too big (I'll get them up someday ).

  I've also started practicing doing CG art, rather than signatures. I'm currently working on a Mermaid/underwater scene now. I would have been finished but my Production Studio II class for my animated short takes up ALOT of my free time. Once I finish it at the end of the quarter, I'll post it up for everyone to see.

  Here are some of my latest sigs I made, but I won't be making that many from now on to practice more on my CG artwork:

  

  

  

  

  

  until next time, be easy everyone.

  The Break Is Finally Here: Got Some New Sigs, Banner and Updates

  Sup Everyone? Man, this last quarter was so hectic. I nearly spent all of my freetime at my school finishing up my project for my advanced animation techniques class. As far as logging on GS, I know I've been ghost a little but I'll be posting more over the break. I've also made a few new sigs, which I think look good:

  

  

  

  

  This sig was made a while ago, but I liked this one too:

  

  I know I've said I'd post my animations I've done, but the file sizes are HUGE. I'll probaly try to run by the school tomorrow and use after effects to compress the files. I'm goind to make sure to include my character sketches and model in my next blog.

  I told yall before that I was doing the internship at MSNBC in april, but I just did a phone interview w/ Nickelodeon studios and I've applied the the internship for Cartoon network. I like the fact that I have an internship lined up, but If any of the other two I get accepted for, I'm jumping on those.

  Now, if you look above you, I've got a new banner for my profile. I originally made it for the Designers Central Union, but tweaked it to be my own. Hit me up everyone and let me know how you guys are doing.
