SLINGER HOLO
Wow - what. a. BEAST. You know - some people are scared of spiders. Spiders don’t put fear in me, but opening a Jayse Hansen Illustrator file does! So many details, expert level designs, all requesting precise animation! I’m so honored Jayse let me work on some super iconic designs from Spider-Man: Homecoming! This holo was way harder than my last Big Hero 6 animation. While the new techniques I learned from that project helped, this animal was in a league of its own. So maybe different moves and speed curves were changed around on this guy. I worked hard to try and get this animation as tight as time and schedule would allow me! I basically just jumped straight into the storm on this one. This was handed to me at a production ready level, so this was no joke for sure!
I’m sure I’ll say this about every recent project I have, but this one pushed me crazy far from where I was just a few weeks ago. While I felt confident before, I feel solid now, ready to take on more and put my own spin on it. The animation is starting to flow out of me without much thought. I just zone out and let my gut tell me where to go - then I comb back with a critical lens and clean up some messy spots - then revisions! I love the process and I’m super excited to jump into more work!
Thanks for checking it out! Enjoy!
