"Spanish Stewie" Final Render


Here's my "Spanish Stewie" :), like "Spanish Buzz" from TS3, but way less cooler, lol!, this is the final shot rendered, i'm about to start the 3rd quarter and wanted to make a few improvements, and to make Stewie more like a flamenco dancer. Too bad i have to move on, there are still some things i wanted to improve, but i guess that's it for "Spanish Stewie", i really enjoyed working on this assignment.

12 Amazing Short Films

.
These are my 12 favorite short films available on the internet, it was a hard task choosing the best ones from over a 100 i have bookmarked, so they're the favorites from my favorites, :D. I kept big studios short out of this, they've been well promoted, and you've probably seen them already. These shorts were not chosen because they have great animation, or awesome storytelling, or kickass lightning (which most of them have), i picked them for just one reason without overanalyzing, i love them.

There are 2D, 3D and Stop Motion films in here, some have tons of awards others not so much, some are made by just one person others by many people, i even picked one with bad animation, but has a great story in my opinion (i'm not saying which one xD). It's a shame i had to leave a few others out, but i wanted to keep this post down to just 12, maybe i'll post some more later.

Short films are my best source of inspiration and this is my little tribute to them.

Enjoy!.

Flamenco Animation [Update] Class 2 - Week 10

This term is about to end, i have to say that for me it wasn't as fun as the last one, but this has nothing to do with AM, or animation being fun, it's more like some life drawbacks thing, it's getting better though. The important thing is that despite all this stuff, i still want to do this because i love it, and because it's a commitment with myself. I still have this week to make little changes and refine more areas, so we'll see how that goes. Here's the last update, still needs some life on it, maybe i should watch Pinocchio or something, lol.
