Animation and Illustration Progress

October 9, 2017 By Tate Gibson

It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a progress report so I thought I’d share some stuff today! I’ve been chugging along on both the Family Tree for the Oleg Illustrations and the animations for RUS407 online lectures and have made a lot of progress! Included here are a number of animation symbols, sets, costumes and cycles that I’ve completed! The Family Tree is almost complete, I’ll wait until it is finished to upload it;)

A “Mother” outfit
A “Lecture Hall”
A Briefcase and Fedora for some office scenes.
Will be on the map of the world for some animations where a plane flies in between Russia and America.
Will also be on a map of the world for the animations where a plane flies between America and Russia, may have snow on it or leaves falling down depending on the season.

Update French Italian grad posters

September 29, 2017 By Nick Lavigne

Another request I received was to update the website for the French/Italian grad program at UT. They had images representing the posters advertising the programs but the formatting was off and they were all different sizes. To fix this, Andre and I re-uploaded the posters and made them each into separate divs in html which allowed us to specify the correct size. I forgot to take a before screenshot but here is the result after:

Update Plan II video

September 29, 2017 By Nick Lavigne

I was requested to update the plan II video on http://liberalarts.utexas.edu/plan2/admission/index.php, because for some reason it had black bars on the top and bottom. Working with Andre we ended up using a Flex html plugin which allows us to embed youtube videos with widescreen formatting.

 

The code ended up looking like this:

<div class=”flex-video widescreen vimeo”><iframe width=”800″ height=”450″ allowfullscreen=”” frameborder=”0″ mozallowfullscreen=”” src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/7vktNhdGlA8″ webkitallowfullscreen=””></iframe></div>

 

And the result is here:

Progress Report

September 25, 2017 By Tate Gibson

Made some good progress the last few days! Last week I was assigned a “Family Tree” illustration for the Oleg drawings. On Friday I found some reference material and made a mock-up of my planned illustration, and today I started drawing it, managing to get a large portion of the tree finalized! I also animated a calendar with pages being torn off, an animated symbol that will be used in a large portion of the RUS407 Animations! I included a gif of the swimming fish I completed awhile back as well. There is still a lot to do with those RUS407 Animations but I’m eager to keep making progress on them and the family tree!

First Challenging Animation

September 23, 2017 By Rodrigo Villarreal

Today was a long day. I was alone in the lab for my last shift: more than 5 hours!

I worked on my first challenging project for TBH. A page with a lot of simultaneous moving objects and layers. It took me a while to get it done but I’m very proud of it. Here are the results.

Busy Week

September 21, 2017 By Tate Gibson

Haven’t really been able to post this week but I’ve done some good work! I’ve added more symbols to the collection for the RUS407 animations, like a waitress outfit and a canoe. I also started working on a large family tree for Polina’s family for the Oleg Illustrations! So far I’ve just made an ornamental nameplate for the family members’ names and sepia filter photos of each family member, I’ve included a few here.
