Hello,

Just finished my 6 month project here at VFS... Well, sort of - I will be working on it for the next two months in the scholarship program to finish it up.

Any feedback is welcome, as I will be putting this together again in two months time!

Thanks!


Its 40 megs, and Divx 5.02.. sorry about the large file size, no time to compress it properly for now.

Now time to play some games..

Bravo, Dan. You did a great job.

The walk cycle on your creature could still use a bit of tweaking, and your wireframes during your rotations seem to pass too quickly.

But certainly worth stars. I hope you get em. Take a screenshot when you do, and put it in your portfolio. heh.

Theres more to the reel, enough so that the narrative makes sense, and I have most of it complete, I just didn't have time to render it all out. I'll be fleshing out the animation even further over the next two months, but mainly I'll be working on my environment.

No job offers yet ;) you guys are the first to see my reel

Excellent work, I think it shows your skills very well. Everything is very well put together, the presentation and continuity is excellent and it looks great.

P.S.
I think you should get a black and white TV, an 8 bit nintendo, and some capri sun for the fort. Maybe a rope swing.

I really need to win the lotto so I can through this old modem out the window and get a fast internet connection. After seeing the still I just got to see the movie.

Oh BTW all donations for a high speed internet connection gratefully accepted. :-)

Thank you for your comments cgjie -

The program at VFS is 12 months long, 6 months of training, and 6 months of working on your own project. Its a really intense program - you find yourself working long long hours here, but its a lot of fun as long as you enjoy the work:bounce:

You can find more at the VFS website if you want. Feel free to PM me if you want more specific info :)

hi danb_vfs:
Thanks a lot for your info! I am really like your amazing work and I have seen it almost twenty times.
I would like to say many word,but sorry my English is poor.
I like the huge cool creature so mush.your model ,texture and rig are so great!Your animation can good expresses the huge creature's weight .
Everything is so good but I think you can improve on the two people's body.might be in anatomical.
I want to model and texture this kind of huge cool creature but I don't know how I can start?
I am very glad to see more wire pictures and textures or rend frame about this cool creature.
thanks a lot!
