Projects

The one area for animation that has always intrigued me has been character performance for puppets. These are some of the my performance animations using puppet rigs.

 

For each of these projects I used different rigs, such as a basic armature rig, StickyBones Inc rig, Silicone puppet rig and clay puppets.

Rotoscope for Stop motion

For this project, the focus on mainly to rotoscope on an already existing video. We used a basic armature rig, where I had markers on where the joints would potentially be present.

Character Body Movements

These short videos mainly focused specifically on character body movements. The model I used for these shorts were the StickyBones.Inc puppet rigs. 

Character performance with a Silicone mold

For this assignment, I sculpted the character body with clay and then created a mold to cast it in Silicone for a specific focus on performance animation.

Shorts

These are some of the few puppet animations I have worked on using clay models. I took on the role of the animator for these short films. I was also a part of the directing and producing team for each of these films.
