Form + Image




2nd version


1st version


This was a work i submitted for concept development, where the theme was Form + Image. My initial idea was to do some stuff using flash with scripting but that didn't work out, so instead i went on doing and created images by using words.

Rather than using shapes to create and image, i had an idea to use words to form an image, i.e kaleidoscope image. So here i managed to do that.

I used some scripting in after effect to create 3d text layer and it was position randomly within the space. Then i used some effects within final cut pro to create the kaleidoscope effect. I submitted the first 1 and after that i did edit it again and came out with the 2nd version of it.

"EL BUSCADOR" - The Seeker




This poster if for my 3D virtual environment aka the room aka the seeker. This poster is for the room assignment for collaborative studio practice. Will upload more pictures on the room as well as the link to the site where the environment could be explored.

This is done with Unity 3D as well as some modeling done in Maya.

Meet Meline




Meet Meline


The Making of meet Meline

“Meline is a little girl who spends most of her time in her grand-parents barn, drawing. One day, a scared furry little creature gets lost in the barn. All excited about this mysterious creature, Meline will now try as hard as she can to approach it and discover it.”


"Meet Meline" tells the story of a little girl named Meline, that will be faced with an extraordinary event. A strange little creature will appear on her life. So does Meline know that little creature, is it real, what will happen when she meets this mysterious creature for the first time? The audience follows Meline as she goes through many emotions from curiosity to excitement, and also fear or even passion." Source: meetmeline.com


Virginie Goyons & Sebastiien Laban have been working on this animation for about two years now and the best part of it is, the only two of them who are doing this and also they kept track on the production process of the whole film on a production blog and the blog could be viewed at meetmeline.com.


One thing i like about this animation is the realism in it as well as the color. The timing was perfect as well.

Short Animation - ALARM



Agents + Behavior: Suicide (Character Animation)





This is my first 3d character animation. First time animating a character using Maya.

At first, it was kind of hard getting to control all the points with different tools for different part of the body. That was during the first day but as i went on with the help of Yang And Jin, understanding the concept and method on how to animate, things got quite fun even though what i did was not good movement but i will try more on my own animating character as it was fun.

I use Maya for animating and use final cut pro to edit it. Overall it was a new experience and i would surely want to try to animate more so that i get use to it and i would love to do 3d animation for my major project next semester.

Thank you as well to Deepak Mistry for the model and rig that i downloaded from creativecrash.com

I would appreciate any comment given on the animation as its a learning process for me.

Sherlock Holmes Ending Credit Title






This is the ending credit title for Sherlock Holmes(2009), which was directed by Guy Ritchie, one of my favorite film director.

Would love to try one day doing a title sequence using this technique.
