Barack Obama Line Test ::

December 7th, 2010 :: Joseph Krzemienski

We wanted to share this rough Line test for the star of an upcoming project featuring our President, Barack Obama! I realize this sounds weird but we’ll be bringing more information when it’s safe to talk about.

When looking at the loop, note the tiny duplicated figure on the top left. One of the reasons I’m not so concerned with facial accuracy for now, aside from the fact that this is a test, is because the final animation will be much much tinier than the large figure featured above. So as this blog post’s terrible pun suggests, there will be many revisions moving forward. But that doesn’t make the process any less fun!

STABB GUNNER: FROM SCRIBBLES TO FINISH ::

December 1st, 2010 :: Joseph Krzemienski

Here’s a little behind the scenes look at how the Stabb Gunner workflow goes. It’s pretty much exactly like any other comic book team. I write, Courtland pencils, and I ink, color and letter. Sometimes the talented Ashley McCague is kind enough to drop in some base colors for us. Along the way, Courtland and I work out any problems the final page might sprout up as we move to a finish. When we’re ready to actually print these bad boys, we’re going to take a pass at every page, and change anything that stills bugs us after it’s in the bag! Check out the finished page HERE, or just start from the BEGINNING!

ANATOMY OF A SHOT – CHASE SCENE – PART 04 ::

November 23rd, 2010 :: Joseph Krzemienski

Now we have some 3D (built from 2D assets of course) box cars and environmental effects going. Also a little bit of Depth of Field crunching that background. It’s starting to look like an actual train yard!
