Walk Cycle 1

Walk Cycle 1
Pencil Animation Test
Runtime: 5 Seconds
----
This is my Character Flintlock Jones  and his walk cycle. I did a lot of experimenting with it. I tried to make him seem confident in the motion. Hopefully that shows through.
Im also in love with the fire loop I have. I wish it was a little longer, but its pretty cool for only 12 frames

Weight and Impact Exercise

Weight and Impact Exercise - Made 2011
Pencil Animation Test
Runtime: 20 Seconds
----
Assignment I had to make for my principals of Animation class at KCAI.
For this assignment we were to animate 3 separate objects of different weight. We had about 2 weeks to finish and there is a lot of secondary animation to it. mostly smoke and the feather through out the clip.

I really like how the feather sort of developed into the main protagonist through out the animation. Sort of a David and Goliath tale.

N64 Controller

N64 Controller - Made: 2011
72x52"
Chalk and Pastel on Butcher Paper
----
Made during my Large Scale Drawing Workshop here at KCAI
Probably the only piece I'm extremely proud of my freshman year. I spent over 2 weeks working on this. and I feel the work shows.
The hardest part about the piece was getting the proportions of the curves right, and capturing the opaqueness of the controller.

CvE - WIP

Cody Vs Erika WIP - Made: 2011-2012
Flash Animation
Runtime: around 30 seconds
----
A fan made animation for my childhood game Pokemon, and my friend Erika.
While this animation is still a work in progress, yet I feel that it is an important staple to shown how much I've grown since the release of ERROAR. A 4 year difference and I feel I have improved immensely.

V's Resurrection

V's Resurrection - Made 2009
16x12
Ink and Watercolor on Paper
----
Yet another concept piece for my Flintlock Jones Universe.
This is picture of the main bad guy finally being resurrected after about a 100 year slumber. he is surrounded by his 3 faithful minions who have been taking care of business while their boss was away.
V is just a working title for him at the moment.
I really love watercolor and Ink, and I wish I had more resources to play around with it more often.

Crispy


Crispy - Made 2009
Still Life
14x10"
----
Nothing really much to say about this. Made during my senior year of high school.
Very murky. The picture does not do the piece itself justice.

ERROAR

ERROAR - Made: April , 2009
Flash Video
Runtime: 2:07
----
This is my first finished animation. This was submitted to Newgrounds.com, a flash website and community. The animation was given Front Page Honors as well as a Daily Second Award. Both are very prestigious to an aspiring animator.
I did not expect the animation to be such a hit to the community. But the amount of attention it gained definitely validated what I wanted to, and inspired me to push further.
