A pitch for an album cover. It eventually didn't work out, but I had fun making it!
Drawn on paper and coloured on Photoshop.

Some Hand-made Illustrations

Here is a sneak peek into what's to come in the next few days. I have been attempting to document some of my favourite stuff, and due to the size of the scanner, have resorted to photography. But here are some things which I managed to scan.



This was made using color pencils on paper. I generally avoid vehicles, but wanted to add somre variety, so gave it a shot. This was done before coming to NID, while preparing my portfolio.




This is a Painting by William Turner, being illustrated in Seurat's Pointilism Style. Basically, application of paint in the form of 'dots' (yep! patience...) - and the principles of colour interaction give the final look of the painting. This was done as a part of our illustration course taken by Priyankar Gupta, an alumnus of NID, visiting faculty and a professional freelancer in Mumbai. You can check out his work here : http://priyankargupta.blogspot.in/








Well, not much to say - I was awestruck the first time I saw this painting, and tried a study out myself!

Sketchbook!

Here is what I carry with me. As my friend, philosopher, and guide Sekhar puts it - this is  my 'actual' laptop!
Here are some scribbled drawings. However, I put down absolutely EVERYTHING in my sketchbooks - notes, thoughts, experiences....I hope to compile it ALL in the digital domain one day!
But for starters.........



Basic Animation lineup



Animation - The very basics that we do


This clip contains some of the very basic exercises in animation that I did during my second year at NID. From walk cycles to small clips containing studies of squirrel and cat movements, to elements like fire and water, everything is compiled here, and looped thrice, for a critical overview.


The interesting thing to note, would be that in some of the exercises, we partnered with a batchmate, to exchange in betweens and keyframes, for our respective animations, hence getting a first hand experience of in betweening somebody else's drawings.


Needless to say, these are line tests of hand drawn animation. Would look a little crude, but the objective was to capture the motion.
