Been playing around lately trying to figure out how to use inverse kinematics in AE. Definitely a learning curve, but it's sweet to be able to see some progress. This headless/lego dude is my first stab at a run cycle using Dan Ebbet's code snippet– soon I'll be jumping into screwing around with the duik plugin for AE.
Working on a food website and thought of making a short animation to show how it looks. The design is still in the beginning phase. What do you think?
This is how we work on the artwork, everything is modeled.
Tonight is the opening of the WB Animation show, hosted by Fan Alley and @[5746:Dennis Salvatier] in Anaheim CA. My Dodo piece can been seen there- I'm super excited for this show, and wish I could be there for the opening. If you can make it, the details are here: http://shopfanalley.com/events/2015/6/16/wb-animation-tribute-gallery-artist-signing
There are a bunch of awesome artists, and from what I've seen so far, the artists involved have made some beautiful work!

Some old work here: extracts from the trailer for a 30 day creative festival I organised for Diesel back in 2012.

Part of a larger project. I've never actually used After Effects but maybe it's time I dive in...
This is one of my favourite quotes.
Just decide to make a little design exercise.
Good weekend!!
Animating rope test.
I wanted to trial a few tips and tricks that I've been researching over the weekend(I've also secretly wanted to get a music player shot up for ages as well). I really enjoyed making this piece and got some After Effects points too as a bonus.
Cheers Jamie-Jones for helping me through this one!
I've attached a bigger view and a video of the animation for you to look at - enjoy!
More experimenting. The animation is too fast and careless, but I'm not even sure I really like this illustration style. Back to the drawing board.
I decided to create a little animation for the focus state of a search input.
