I gotta post again.

So-.... this page has been quite dead for the past two years. But well ! I had a pretty good reason ! I just graduated from Gobelins in Paris and did this movie with a wholesome teammate named Rose Gallerand (@truite_wasabi on instagram) !

The real story of a young lady from Costa Rica, Pacifica Zelaya, who went to study in Belgium at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in 1905. Unfortunately, there, she met Edouard Mailly, another student who would become her fiancé. Our movie tells the story of a relationship, a concert and her last evening.

In addition...

Right, I haven’t been posting in such a while. Between the end of the Gobelins master year, plus the small comic adaptation of the graphic novel Le Jardin, with also that covid shit having its best life, I’ve kind of been away from tumblr. And I probably will be -still- for a moment as I’ve started working as a freelancer for Pencilmation and, today, as an intern for Cartoon Saloon, the greatest opportunity of my small career so far. And I’ve got to make it my priority, obviously ! I feel like a little kid among all these amazing people...

Then you could say I’ll be back as soon as I’ll have new interesting content to post or the energy to finally post that pile of ocs and Dnd stuff.

At last, here is the final version of my 2d/3d acting exercize ! Which was a pain, let’s be honest, but also very interesting, I’m glad I managed it despite the situation and the short time we had ! Hope you’ve enjoyed the whole process *.+

My last rather difficult module was to animate a 2d character and a 3d character together based on a piece of dialogue. And I was a fool, because damn it, is Kent difficult to animate, even in the movie The Iron Giant, his proportions are changing, it was difficult to get a good reference of him.

But well ! It’s over, FINALLY, and here is my rough animation of him (to start), the 3d is supposed to be in the back aaand I’ll post the final scene in a few weeks. I’m so… so glad it’s over-

Thank you very much, dear anon ! Regarding the references, to find good ones, well, there is no secret, you’ve got to be searching... and keep searching ! For example, this project was about Paris in the 40′s, then I searched for pictures from that time on the internet here and there, pictures of kids, women, houses. It took me a while, but I managed to find a bunch of them to base my visuals on, including an exhibition of old photographies from that time.

One advice I can give you for the next part is to build a moodboard (or several) to organize your references, see what’s missing and what you should still be looking for. It helps to search and work in an efficient way !

Coloured version of the layout for my school project “Pour l’amour d’un boche”, posted last week !

Two layouts I’ve done for my school project “Pour l’amour d’un boche”, based on the 1940′s poor neighborhood of Paris. I’ll post one coloured version next week-

An old concept for my character Elizabeth *.+

After the Character Design, have the animatic I’ve done for my short project “Pour l’amour d’un boche” ! Gentle warning, this is not supposed to be a happy story, there is strong language and bullying. And I’m also a terrible voice actor.
