Please visit my animation in general blog which would be updated on regular basis, since this blog was only for the NG Project.

Ladies and Gentelmen the premiere is here..

Yes, I have cut it with sound and music, most of the scenes are in place. It was long day today, or shall I say long 10 weeks of the course. Tomorrow I should have my reel and Mi kha-El the movie burned to dvd and handed over to Steve and Kimo.
Unfortunately finishing this piece now at 23:39 doesn't leave me much time for the show reel, or sleep maybe?
Enjoy! There is some cracking sounds, i think because the DV I encoder, never used it before, well there would be time for the fine tuning before September.
The large screen link would be updated soon with the whole version of the movie.
It was a hard time , but I got there in the end, hope there would be people who enjoy this movie.

Colour scheme and a voice for the knight.

During the time when I was trying to get it done for the deadline I decided on colour scheme for the whole project, for today still got few days to finish the fight scene for Thursday lets hope I can make it, today still coloring and correcting other scenes.
Also I added voice over it is for a test ,have been thinking long time about this, and if you watching the fight scene is missing, and some editing is really bad, it all would be fixed soon.

Got the music, got the tune..

Thanks to a website called soundclick.com
I found my music, and thanks to generosity of Dan Conway from Don Duan Production I have a tune which really suits my piece, I hope when it will all be finished and edited effect would be much better then it is in this rough cut.
Visit Dan Conway DonDuane Production page and listen to his music, I love the piece I got for my animation.

And a encoding of fight reference has gone mad, see it for you self.

run continued....and Hans Memling

run ...i internal between flying i decided to do the run again

and today on my Google art of the day i get to see Hans Memling:
The Last Judgment oil on panel, 1467-71 Muzeum Narodowe, Gdansk, I remember i use to be fascinated by that painting, it was really inspiring and the style, skill of the painter amazed me and few other friends at our art school back in Poland, and also important we were so proud to have this painting in Gdansk in National Museum, in grand gothick 'Mariacki' church located at Gdansk old town ,there is a copy of this painting available for viewing whenever we wonder around there...and the story of how the painting got in Poles hands, stolen by polish pirates (kaper) from merchant ship,it was just great painting with a great story ,nothing new I guess most of the art was stolen at some point ;-)Now looking at it again I wonder maybe that is why I chosen the Bermejo piece , because it reminded me of this art work..

A question, who can tell me where is Archangel Michael on Memling painting ?
