A sequence I worked on for the Travel Oregon ad, Slighty (more) Exagerated. You can watch it here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIC-XmyEfhI Layout Posing for all the trees, bathers on the second shot, main dog and owner on the last one. Animated all the Bee(s), the little creatures at the beginning (but not the fx transformation) and the first Tree (only). Can I say I hate trees now? ;p
A friend of mine started some adventures on D&D so I drew my character, Testu. A Vanara Monk, like the hot springs snow monkeys in Japan. (As well as to try not to be too close to Monkey from Kung Fu Panda...)
Finally uploading my work on Castlevania Season 2. Rough animation based on the amazing ground work, keys and sometimes more, of @spencerwan . More coming up.
Going through work that has been released. Here are gifs from a League of Legend spot’s Doublelift. You can watch it here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug6dDZ1Cb5A
I’ve played RIME recently, because I didn’t know what to play, and I was positively surprised. It’s a gorgeous game on many levels. If you like short, pretty and meaningful games, go for it.
The Last Guardian Finally took some time to continue this series of stories that I loved. And this one, oh my did it touch me deeply. This video game is love and pain at the same time, if you’ve ever bonded deeply with an animal, this is for you.
How did you learn to draw/animate like you do? Resources, tools, inspiration? anything really? All of your art is really good and I hope you keep it up!
Hum, first of all thank you !Then, it’s difficult to answer the “like you do” part. I’ve really started to draw seriously when I enter Pivaut school in Nantes, France. At the end of the program (4 years (1 optional + 3 )) I wasn’t satisfied or confident enough with what I could do so I prepared for Gobelins and got in on my second attempt.I finished their program in 2015.
Now, I’ve always been amazed by japanese work (mostly their action scenes), and never been interested in cut-out animation.But even if I said I’m amazed, I still don’t have a huge knowledge about it. I don’t scroll down Sakugabooru (https://www.sakugabooru.com/post) like I probably should.
It’s awkward how I don’t even know how to answer the “inspiration” part. I’ve always been stuck on this question. I don’t know artists’ names and so on. I’m so useless haha
I think part of my problem is that I’ve had a ‘feeling/instinct’ for animation since the beginning and I’ve been playing with it while trying to run away from rules and methods. Because the more rules I tried to apply, the less attractive my work started to become. Thankfully I’m working on this to get better as I go. (When I had the great luck to be picked for an internship at Disney Animation (Thanks Gobelins’ short listing!), my mentor Eric Goldberg seemed to have a hard time trying to make me plan and control things ahead. So now I try to follow his advice as much as I can, for I have a lot of respect for him!)I worked a few weeks with Spencer Wan, and he said having practiced martial arts has a huge impact on how he can animate today. He obviously understands weight and foot work beyond what I can only “imagine” from my couch life style.Depending on what kind of work you want to do, maybe practice a similar activity? Sounds like a lame advice though hahaBut miming your action, whatever it is, if you can, definitely helps understanding a lot of things. I’m very lazy so I try to do it mentally but I still get up once in a while to look like a monkey in my office.This post is way too long.As for tools, I use the software TvPaint since it’s the one they teach at Gobelins (beside animating traditionally on paper), and it’s actually really nice to play with, compared to Adobe Flash (or Animate now). I tried ToonBoom Harmony for a job and it was alright too ! Definitely a good mix between TvPaint and the Vectors of Flash.Finally to come back to ‘how I draw’, I’m fascinated by the male body and always wanted to draw this only. I tried the realistic style but I’m too lazy, so in the end it’s a mix between things, indeed. I don’t know how to draw faces, it’s easier to learn body anatomy than personality in the head. Blah, it reminds me I need to work on these. Thanks! hahaSorry for this length, it’s probably not what you wanted.
Ahh! J'ai pas la moindre idée comment vous y arrivez! Moi, je viens juste d'entreprendre mes études d'animation et ça me prend déjà la tête!
Ha, désolé du retard, je fais rarement attention aux ptits messages sur tumblr.C’est sûr que l’animation demande beaucoup de rigueur et/ou de patience. L’avantage c’est qu’il n’y a pas besoin de savoir animer pour travailler dans le secteur de l’animation. Travail d’équipe implique beaucoup de postes divers. Faut trouver son truc :)
Berserk, I remember reading it while I was very young, and I rediscovered it with the trilogy of the Golden Age movies. I understood a whole other layer of feelings between the characters, and I love it! I need to buy the books again. Books, movies and games that touched me n°4 (not in a specific order)
Finally! I Finally, received the fanzine “Nothing But Glasses” for which I did a piece. “Naked Men with glasses” was the theme, so I couldn’t resist. Thanks @diane-truc !!
Full Metal Alchemist If you don’t know it, first of all I have no idea where you have been for the last ten years, but then, find it and watch/read it. It has to be my all time favourite. The story of those two brothers touches me deeply. Slowly doing a series of non polished illustrations on movies, series or games that touched me, one way or another.
I’ve always thought Viola Davis would make a great Helen Justineau, in The Girl With All The Gifts. I really, really, loved the book, so obviously the movie was a great disappointment. Even if they gave an amazing opportunity to this young actress of color (Sennia Nenua), I think swapping ‘races’ for both characters changes a lot of subtexts from the book. If you get the chance, read the book, but don’t read anything about it before.
I’ve watched Stranger on Netflix, and even if I think the show is a bit too slow, I really liked those two characters. She is so beautiful and has amazing outfits. Then I liked his lack of expressions (justified in the story), and overall charisma. Big crush on both of them. (I also want to apologize if I got the title wrong on the picture haha. I had no clue what I was copying (from the official poster) even if I tried to check it out on google) (that english title makes no sense to me)
Some old sketches of Arai I did two years ago. My scanner is pretty bad so I took crappy pictures! I’m still not sure where I’m going with this but who knows?
Seeing the amazing work of @fisher903 (here too @908123751), I couldn’t resist. I had to redraw my very old OC from the time when I used to write on one of those obscure RPG forums. Arai was a medic, with snake abilities/jutsu very muche like Orochimaru, but without the “crazyness” part. And the girl, whose name I forgot, was his best friend, using Raikiri and sword/taijutsu stuff. Both were from Kumo, village of the clouds, country of lightning. I still have no idea how to handle colours.
Synopsis : Hayate et Iwa se font face sur un champ de bataille. Absorbés par leur orgueil, ils se lancent dans un duel alimenté par leurs ressentiments.
Hayate and Iwa face one another on a battlefield. Absorbed by their pride, they clash in a duel fueled by deep emotions.

So here it is, SHUDO, the graduation movie I worked on this final year at Gobelins. Please share and show us love! haha
I reblog this as I would like to thank GAZE Film Festival for the screening of Shudo, in the Men Shorts Program yesterday. I’m very happy I wazs able to attend, and even more because it’s an LGBTQ+ festival. It was also the first time I could watch this very short film on a big screen and I think it comes out pretty strong and intense. I’m glad they chose a funny short after to release the tension. Shudo was made for our graduation exam along with To-Anh Bach and Hugo Weiss. I want to thank them again for their amazing work on it. Thanks!
