Jackob Murray is a talented and hardworking BFA student who is eager to animate as much and as often as he can. I gave him this sequence which isn't heavy on acting, but took a lot of coordination and effort as it had to be on 1's, and the two runs had to function at different tempo's. Students often get thrown off when you ask them to do anything more than a vanilla march time walk cycle, but Jackob figured this out very quickly and spend the rest of the time refining and clarifying the art quality. I plan to give him more work in the future.

This is one of the three initial shots I allowed interns to work on. Jackob Murray was very eager to work on this shot and practice his bipedal locomotion and different cycles. He was able to produce exactly what I was asking for after only a few revisions. Jackob also handled all the clean up and coloring. I handled the background layout, and Marshall Stevens painted the background.
