It's All About History: An Animator's Poem

If I believe,
Even for an minute possibility
That this gets easier,
I haven't been challenging myself enough 
To get it right.

Dig through the cosmetic delirium of 
one's virtual space and
you'll find the blatant habits,
Brown paper bags full of empty 
instant coffee containers
cardboard pizza boxes,
and fermented snot globules
from the constraint of our
perpetual indulgence,
stress.

Sleeplessness isn't the disease,
procrastination is a virus 
spread by others,
gratefulness eludes constructive criticism
While dreams crack into rough edges,
Planes,
and vertices.

When the virtual space is switched to
reality space, 
Middle click drag not getting you anywhere,
Space bar don't give you new views,
Can't scale up your devices,
No spinning around and driving forward your advisement,
A fatal error isn't the end of existence. 

Remember what David says,
Help prevent RSI sir,
Unplug to restart, 
And try again.

Paranoid cat freaking out over nothing.
Note: The last frame is really weird. It doesn't show up when I play it on Quicktime and VLC but it shows up after I upload it on Youtube.

Thio_Melanie_Name Change

Attention to David Latour and fellow classmates. 'Yume' is just me, Melanie Thio.
I posted a bunch of comments forgetting to put my name in and I can't seem to edit it.
That's it.

Crystal Godat - Creature Final


Rico vs. The Feather from Crystal Dawn Godat on Vimeo.

I originally wanted to use the Rexxy rig for this idea, but it proved to not be the best choice for what I wanted to do in the end. I decided to use the Koko rig and it got the job done. I'll most likely come back to this to do a render and add any additional polishing notes.

Great semester everyone, Happy Holidays!

Creature reference (Extras)


A cool creature made with a 3D printer if anyone's looking for good references that'll creep you out. Good for understanding balance and movement with multiple legs.

Thio_Melanie - default hand pose (angles)


We usually overlook the default pose of a relaxed hand. Here are some really useful different angles. Notice the curves contrasting the straight fingers,
