Paso Doble teaser
Busy, busy, busy. That is how I would describe my days lately. If it's not the film, it's the demo reel. If it's not the demo reel, it's the portfolio. The end of school is just a few weeks away, so it's time to really buckle down & get things done.
People have been asking to see something from my film, so here is a little teaser. It's the opening dance , which is my twist on a Paso Doble. I don't want to give too much away, so you'll have to wait until graduation to see more!
***Thank you to Dan Sprogis for helping me paint this beast.

Paso Doble
Now that my final year at Sheridan is creeping up, I can finally talk about my thesis film! Paso Doble is a Spanish dance between a matador and his cape. I am using this inspiration to metaphorically compare the discovery of marital infidelity to a bull fight. That all sounds very technical, but it's really heated, passionate, and aggressive. I am hoping to marry my musical theatre and animation passions in this fantasia-type piece.
When I first came to Hans, I had nailed down the storyboards after many revisions, but he felt that I was playing it too safe with the style. (I was.) This month he had me explore many abstract and modern artists, and to my surprise a style was actually emerging. Being more of an animator, I've never developed a style for a film before, but I now see that the story and the style must inform each other.
Above is a one of my very quick explorations of a potential style. It most likely will differ from this look, but it's one idea along the way...

16 HR FILM
Look! I made something!
Over reading week a couple of Sheridan friends and I made a 16 hour film! It was supposed to be a 24 hour film, but thank goodness Saud got tired and called the whistle after 12 hours. I am useless after midnight anyway. Ashlyn was a hero and composited the thing, adding the extra 4 hours or so. In the end, we came out with this little ditty entitled Look Before You Leap.
Enjoy!
