Took intro to sculpture with Thomas Applegate at Cogswell last semester. Following are the two sculptures I completed as well as some of the processes used to create them.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our first project was a chimera and it's human master. My design combined a kudu, giraffe and a hippopotamus to make a "Kudiraffamus". His master would be a spear fisherman.</div>

This first stage was a rough maquette whose legs were way too short and pretty much just looked like a fat deer. As seen above.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I worked on a second maquette with longer legs. This one's proportions were much more to my liking. See him here next to my printer.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Next I drew armature maps: side view, front view and top view, then created the final armatures for the characters.</div>
<br />
The hippo body was padded with styrofoam.<br />

Clay was slathered to the surface. The interesting thing about this project was creating this top heavy animal, who would also have a rider, be put into a walking pose, and be sturdy and balanced. On the right you can see a bit of the hardware sticking out of the kudiraffamus's back. I epoxy'd a coupling bolt into the armature of the animal an some aluminum tubing into the pelvis of the rider. The tubing slipped over the coupling bolt and a screw could be tightened through the riders back to secure him to his steed. This made sculpting the individual characters easier</div>

Here are the results.<br />

Our Second project was a transformation.<br />
<br />
To visualize our final sculpture, we took photos of armatures, then digitally painted masses over the images.<br />

For this Project I made 3 identical armatures. I worked on these 2 fellows simultaneously. up through secondary form. I then used the 3rd armature to create the "sculpture" using candle wax (paraffin). Applying what I learned from the clay (plasteline) characters to the wax sculpt.<br />
<br />
Working with the wax was interesting. I melted it down to liquid then as it solidified I applied it to the armature. Most of the armature was covered in styrofoam before I applied the wax. Using a serrated tool I scrapped out the rough shapes I wanted. Then with a wire loop I smoothed out the surface and finally polished it with a paper towel and some friction to get it to look a bit like stone.<br />
<br />
Here's how the final sculpture came out.<br />

<a href="https://vimeo.com/110275139">Keenan Manely Animation / 3D Generalist reel 2014</a> from <a href="https://vimeo.com/user912800">Keenan Manely</a> on <a href="https://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br />
My name is Keenan Manely. I am a traditional animator using modern tools. I've made films and animations as a hobby since middle school. At De Anza College, I focused on perfecting my art. I have learned many things from animators such as Webster Colcord, Dave perry and Marty McNamara.
<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This past 2 years, using the skills I have accumulated, <span style="font-size: 16px;">I have been working on animations for </span><a href="http://www.artiphany.com/" style="font-size: 16px;">Artiphany</a><span style="font-size: 16px;">, a site that offers higher quality animated e-cards. My job has been to take an artist's 2D images and greeting card concepts and turning them into fully dimensional animations. I have updated my Demo Reel with new work from Artiphany. </span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Though my animation style is traditional, my formal training with modern tools such as After Effects and Maya, has given me the skills to work between different mediums to attain the absolute best look for any given Project.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I plan to always further my knowledge and expand my tool set in creating animation and visual effects.</div>

The fog was shot practically, in HD, the blue channel had to be removed, because it was noisy garbage. I then used the fog as a matte on a greyish blue solid so the fog could have a more even hue.

We would have a meeting or phone talk once a week to discuss what we wanted. after getting a first example animated.

So all of this seems a little out of context.<br /><br />So instead I can talk about the new. Yes a new blog because of my new email.<br /><br />I've got dozens of baby pictures from my next project's development. And there's Neil's new epic film. There's a lot of new things I'm excited about.<br /><br />Makes me happy!Keenanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07678388036087204033noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5126800311909981934.post-19270751090051681752008-11-14T11:00:00.002-08:002009-03-22T08:41:46.941-07:00Tonights Going to be Awesome!Tonight is the night of the <a href="http://www.sffs.org/events/index_series_sfiaf08.html">SF International Animation Festival</a>! it will also be the premiere of the Dandy Warhols' Welcome to the Third World music video.

I won't say which one, But it involved a lot of clay and blue hands; very, very, berry? blue hands. Jake and I took turns animating while the other "observed" (I call it back seat animating). we got four tests completed. I animated the first and third shot. Jake did the second and fourth shot.<br /><br />We were focusing on developing entrances and mobility with a viscous anthropomorphic character. We also tried breaking away from the shape of the character, becoming something more organic, and returning to something anthropomorphic.<br /><br />But enough with the two dollar words, I'll let the video speak for itself.<br /><br /><object width="400" height="300"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=2181894&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1"><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=2181894&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=&fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="400" height="300"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://vimeo.com/2181894">Blob Monster Tests</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user912800">Keenan Manely</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com/">Vimeo</a>.<br /><br />Yes Jake, I went over to the light side and started a vimeo account.
