ART427 ASSIGNMENT 01 INDEPENDENT 3D ARTIST ANIMATOR/STUDIO PRESENTATION

   The animator that I did my research on was Rodrigo Huerta otherwise known as “El Cid”. He’s an independent animator based in California and is known for his animation shorts on his YouTube channel. His website is http://stingingfoam.com. This page includes links to his entire social media site as well as his YouTube site where most of his work is showcased. (http://www.youtube.com/user/elcid1984/feature)

   He went to Baylor University where he earned his bachelors in science for computer science and engineering. Afterwards he earned his masters is science, computer visualization in Texas A&M University. He didn’t learn any animation until he went on animationmentor.com. From there he worked many studio jobs until he landed a job in DreamWorks animation studio. There he worked on Shrek the Third, Puss in Boots, and Kung Fu Panda 2. He then left DreamWorks to start his own animation studio. He started uploading his videos in addition to working with other well-known internet animators. Over the years his channel has had over 160,000 subscribers as well as more than 1,000,000 views in some of his videos.

Assignment 1 My kid's room

This is the rig for my child's room. His name is Jeff and he loves hockey. He is a huge hockey fanatic and a fan of the Boston Bruins. Naturally his room is very hockey oriented. His bed displays a puck headboard and his one of a kind lamp is a four hockey pucks stacked on each other. He's so into hockey he even has a miniature Stanley cup to show off to all his friends. 

Heres some reference that I used fro Jeff's room.
