Bachelor film released!

My bachelor group project "The Backwater Gospel" can now be seen online.

Sypnosis
As long as anyone can remember, the coming of the Undertaker has meant the coming of death. Until one day the grim promise fails and tension builds as the God fearing townsfolk of Backwater wait for someone to die.







(WARNING: this film is not suited for minors)
You can find the movie here (or by clicking the poster)

My "Making of The Backwater Gospel" video can be found below


Birthday greeting

Started my first CG-painting this year with a birthday greeting to my mum. 100% chance of Karaoke night if her Filipino friends are invited!

Update =o

Guess it's been a while! Had a great internship in London working mostly on the game cinematics for the new FPS game "Brink" and also animated on a bunch of commercial work. Just recently graduated and is now all finished with my bachelor in animation in Denmark where my bachelor movie "The Backwater Gospel" premiered at the cinema! (It can be seen online soon)

I have to wait a bit before I can post the animation and concept art I did at The Mill. So meanwhile I'll just fill up the rest of this post by dumping out the few scribbles I did while I was there..

Cheers!



The 11 Second Club

Last month I was lucky enough to get first place on "The 11 Second Club"
The animation was created using TVP where the task was to animate a dialogue taken from the movie "Requiem For A Dream"

Torghatten, Brønnøysund














Last year a friend of mine wanted me to paint a picture for her mothers birthday.  The painting had to include the mountain from my hometown in Norway called "Torghatten" Likewise it also were to include seagulls and "Fembøring"(a type of boat) wich is also quite common here in Brønnøsynd (at least on older classical paintings from this area)

Glenn Vilppu class

For two Saturdays I was lucky enough to get into Glenn Vilppu's weekend classes here in Viborg.

In general, it was quite difficult for me to draw when there was so many things to think about again.

I do however feel I learned a lot from those two days, and things started to become a little bit more easier and automatic towards the very end. To bad it was for such a short time though, he's such a talented draughtsman and teacher.





Stuff



1. quick Caricature of a fisherman painting hanging at the wall of the school pub

2. A speed-painting for a weekly drawing activity where the topic was to design a super sized life saving vessel that would rescue humanity if earth was undergoing a distaster.

I put together an Animation Showreel/online portfolio for my 3 month internship after summer. It's going to be updated every now and then since it has a couple of scenes from "The Backwater Gospel" that will be replaced with newer ones (click image to enter)
