Haetae is one of four mythical guardians in Korea. I love Korean mythical figures because they are somewhat funny and cute although they are very powerful and scary. I started from clay model, made a mold with the clay model using Oomoo 30 rubber mold, and lastly extract resin from the mold. Of course, polishing was followed. I used Prasti-kote sandable primer for cover transparent resin, and one of my Haetae is finished with stone textured spray paint. I confronted a problem that resin had a lot of tiny bubbles. Here, filler comes in handy. I used “Dap fast’n final lightweight spackling”. It worked like a charm! I enjoyed the entire process, and next time I hope I can fly further.

Yes, right. They added my footage on their vimeo channel! Although no one pressed ‘Like’ button(…), it’s still happy to be in there with other awesome movies! I’m surprised not only they added mine, but also it only took a day to happen after I put my footage on vimeo! Alright, keep it up, I’ll go for it!!

Inspired by Video copilot!!
Main focus was a clean keying as much as I can, and I added camera projection technique.
It’s not perfect, weird distortions are here and there, however I like this 2.5D feeling! Enjoy!

Pattycake animation?!
One of the ridiculous computer animation ever!
I struggled with gimbal lock, Euler equation helped it a lot, but it didn’t cure everything. Good news is though, I started to understand how to avoid this problem. Yay!

Getting involved in commercial industry!

I used to play mario series with family since I was kid. I never imagine that I can work on this game.
Right. I’m not involved in the game itself, but it’s still meaningful for me to work on its commercial.
I only made transition and lower 3rd. It was interesting to work with other workers and client[...]

And I have to thank my instructor, Eric. Thank you for opportunity!
