Ok guys, here is a sneak peak of my final, as most of you know its going to be about cells… I’ll explain the concept later, anyway, I’ve been working this week on my assets and visual style, so far I have two different ideas, one that is clean and sharp and the second one which is more grungy.
Here is a series of lookframes to illustrate what I’m talking about, they were both built from scratch using diferent techniques (eventhough they look similar) so they are gonna be animated in very different ways, any feedback will be highly appreciated, feel free to comment or vote on which style should I follow, enjoy!

Look 1 cleaner and sharper
Look 2 the “grungier” one

The past week I have been working in flash. I originally was going to have the main home page of my site in flash and run the other pages in HTML but after thinking really hard and the fact I am doing a programming focused project I decided to do all the pages in flash and load swf’s into my word press structure via pages. I started coding the other pages for my site and I was able to get the weapins page and environments page done. The weapons page shows the gun in the game and displays the 3 functions it has with mouse overs to show videos of the gun function. I also went on to code the environments page showing the location the game takes place and maps of the game levels.
I am at a part of the project where I need to make visual design choices and I am having some problems making those decisions. I worked all week on the flash pages and on Saturday I worked on my HTML theme and navigation so I could be happy showing Dougal my project. Saturday turned out to be a long unsuccessful day and I was unhappy with everything I got done. I was not happy with anything I did and had one of those horrible unproductive days. Sunday I returned to flash and continued actionscripting. I am now 120 hours into the project.
I met with Sebastien and Dougal and the meeting threw me off track a little. I went into the meeting asking for help with visual design and walked out creating wireframes for the site. I am now going to design the site for a 1600 x 1200 browser and my flash content will be 900 x 944. I have attached the pdf for my wireframes. Click on the link below to see.

Having some time on my hands last week I decided to try to figure out a way to create a page peel/rip effect that doesn't look straight from wordart. After a couple failed attempt of doing really complicated stuff, I figured out a technique that not only looks pretty good, ...

I was looking for new work from an artist I love, Hugh Syme, but the only new work I found from him was commercial illustrations. I guess the music market is not what it was in the 90's anymore. Hugh is known for his memorable album artworks for rock bands ...

This is my final for our 3D graphics class this term. I have already studied 3ds Max in depth when I was back home. I'm finding Cinema 4D really intuitive and a lot easier than Max. For a quicker download check it out on my YouTube account.
