Nowadays I've been learning Storyboard Pro to work on "My Big Big Friend" production and I'm already making my list of "bugs" and improves for the Toonboom team. They are very open to users inputs, and that's making the hole difference between their software and adobe's softwares.Storyboard still in his infant version. It still has some performance problems and some nonsense tools. Some tools

Againg the Art Rage (software).I still trying to control the tools. I guess is kind of hard because I'm not used to use natural media.

That's my second experiment with art rage software. I'm still taking baby steps with it, but I think that, compared to the other one, I'm in a good pace.

As any animator I live with 100 projects for short films on my mind all day long.The mosca project is one of the most cool I have right now. I took some time to redesign the character I put here on the site a while ago. Still hoping to find time to do the actual film some day...

The first 3 spots were done together, from one day to the other. I didn't know the characters and since we had such a tide schedule I did a veeeery limited animation on those. The last one I had the same time(one full day) but I had to do just that one, therefore much more animation on it :)In one way or the other, all the work done for Reality Shows are very economic because there is no time for

Well, I gonna do a little making of for the website image. I'm in the middle of it! The blue "balloon" is the "mouse over" state of the site buttons. It's gonna change a lot yet but we can have an idea of the final felling already. I try to always begin an illustration with the basic colors and shadows. Than I go to high lights, textures and smaller details. I did the initial drawing in Flash and

Oh Yeah! I'm about to open my own animation studio with a couple of amazingly talented friends. I'm working on the website right now. There are 2 concept images for it that I can already show.If you are wondering, "Zoiu" in Brazil is a kid slang for "Eye", 1 eye.... It cames from the portuguese word "Olho" that phonetically becames "Owlyou"! We chose that name because it is small enough to

A Tv clip done for a especial jewelry collection based on Oscar Niemeyer drawings. The spot is really simple and it's not everything I wanted, but its ok... The music is very fine tough :)I did almost everything in terms of animation, planning etc... The drawings are based on originals from Niemeyer himself. The direction and some animation was done by 2DLab.

I will try to begin production during july, if everything run smoothly until then...The character was made in Flash and exported to Photoshop, as a png with alpha channel, were I did the background and effects.
