2007/2008(Action Synthèse – Director : Graham Ralph)

3D lead character animator

New life in Provence the South of FRANCE
The sun, the sea all along the year... Great, and a new flat with a lot of works to do in…
During the 3 first month of the production I was senior animator in another team, but one of the lead didn't make the job so director wanted me to take his place… So did I during 2007 !
I'd to manage one of the 3 animations team of this serie.
We were 5 to 6 animators and we have an entire show to make in 4 weeks (6 seconds per day minimun with a good acting level).
I had to deal with an acting level high for a TV serie and a lot of junior animators who were on their first production.
But we made it. Good new experience for me.

During the Magic Roundabout production a very little team of animation (animation director, the 2 others leads and me ) had to work on a teaser.

OZ _{test for feature film}
2007(Action Synthèse - Director : John Boorman)

3D character animator (test acting and setup)

A very plaisant experience.
For the first time I was pleased to animate with the best quality I can (but only 6 days for 2 long acting shots).
I have finished one of my two shots (the other is not terminated at all).
We had to deal with new version of XSI on this test (lot of bugs played with our patience ! ) and lot of corrections on the skinning and the setup...
Conclusion : design had to be redifined and character setup too, but it will be another story.

For this season, Jérome Mouscadet (the director), wanted to be more dark more "empire strikes back" mood.
He informed me that there were new creatures and I had to devellop new way to move in a very short time.
This season was the last for me, I wanted to see other thing, to animate more in differents way with other people in another place.

All the sequence on wich I've worked is taking place during the night and the 2D colors we have to deal with are brown or dark green.
You can imagine the headachefor machting yellow lights of the cars (3D) with the BG, the shadows...
Lot of success for this feature animation film :
