Chris Hirata Demoreel 2013 from Chris Hirata on Vimeo.

Here is a result of 3D character animation study I've done in AM!
It's time to look for some jobs now....

AM PP: Week10

This is updated version of my showreel. Not polished 100% yet, but close. The shots with frame counter are ones I'm still working on. oh boy, this term is ending next week...

AM PP: Week9

Fixing one of my old shot. Phone model was replaced to much better one + body mechanics fixed.

AM PP: Week8

My character walks at really polished stage. Little details might be fixed later but I'll call it as done for now. There're few more shots to polish so I really gotta move forward!

AM PP:Week7

close to done!!!

AM PP: Week6

Started to refine including the acting part. Still looks too pose to pose...

AM PP: Week5

just continuing from the last week...

AM PP: Week4

Here's more developed version of the walk, and also the planning for the version with some acting before he start to walk.

AM PP: Week3

blocking for my walk cycle, from 3/4 and side view. This rig is the new one just uploaded at AM and he's just so awesome!

Animation Mentor Polishing and Portfolio: Week1

It's finally the last term, time to polish things up for portfolio. Here's bunch
of shots I'm considering to put on my portfolio still haven't fixed anything
yet. Dialogue scenes obviously needs updates...I wonder how they get
better at the end of the term.

AM AA: Week9~12

seems like the weird problem with uploading video on blogger was fixed,
so catching up with AM stuff.  I'm still fixing this on the new term already
started but showing as the progress I went through...

AM AA: Week8

I had lots of technical problems through refine stage, but definitely getting better....

AM AA: Week7

AM AA: Week5

Facial animation added + splined!!!

AM AA: Week4

Here's 2nd blocking pass. Got more solid gestures and acting.

AM AA: Week3

here's a first blocking pass. Exploring acting choice....

Animation Mentor Advanced Acting: Week2

New termed was started from this month. The goal for this term is basically finish one dialogue animation for my portfolio.

I had some trouble choosing dialogues but at the end, I decided to choose something I really like. I've thought of variation in works but suck it, I love cute stuff! Put things you really like in portfolio so that you won't work for something you don't like....maybe little changed because of my poor English but Stephen Silver was saying something like that in his class, and I totally respect it!

anyway, this is the primary planning to check layout and camera work.

AM: ITA Week11

This is my final submission for this term, but I still get the last e-critique
so I'm still fixing this. My acting is not really great now but I guess I did
okay for the first dialogue animation for 3D.

Holiday is coming!!!!

AM: ITA Week10

It's almost the end of term, which means I have to finish this. aaahhhh
