In my experience, the eyes often carry more weight in facial animation than the mouth or cheeks. I try to give the eyes a little more attention so they feel right.

Video reference is crucial for all animators, even professionals. There’s always something interesting to discover in the reference, and iterating on it is also quick.

A study shot my student Sanaz reimagined from Claynosaurz. She’s only been doing CGI for three months, but her 2D background really shows in her animation.

During the first three sessions of my Advanced Body Mechanics class, I animated live in front of the students to teach them how to animate more efficiently, while also emphasizing the artistic aspects of animation and the analysis of video references.

We used tons of reference on Spice Frontier. Animators helped each other out—Don’t hesitate to ask a friend to act out your shot, sometimes they’re the perfect stand-in. Big thanks to Scott Wiser for the fantastic references! I didn’t use any references for this second shot.

An animation I did back in 2020 as a demo for a group of students to teach them about breakdowns. It's always fun looking at these old playblasts.

When I started learning animation I thought of keys as the important poses everything is built around. Over time I started seeing it differently. Every moment can be a key moment. “Keys” are useful for learning references. But when you're actually animating every frame matters.

🚀 Spacify – A Free Powerful Space Switching Tool for Animators I used to struggle with complex animations until I discovered the power of Space Switching. It's included in Animo, which is completely free. If you'd like to try it, you can grab it from my Gumroad page.

Some beginners feel that using video reference is ‘cheating’ but it really isn’t. It’s simply a helpful tool for discovering interesting choices and nuances we might not come up with on our own.

Saw this performance back in 2020 and had to try a quick animation test. A few months ago, I revisited it using Ramon rigs, which was such a refreshing experience. I’ve always loved close-up shots :)

Here's a a little WIP acting study I put together over the past two days. Hopefully I'll find some time to polish it up.
