Well, a brand new shiny Mastodon feed, so it's probably best to do an #introduction.
I'm Stephen, a freelance animator based in South Wales, UK. I do a mix of character animation and motion design, mostly using #b3d and #Moho.
Here's a short animation I made last year called Wooly Jumper as part of the Cardiff QuickDraw 48hr animation competition.

Day 2 of the Harmony course, more building and rigging, lots learnt about deformers (pretty much a bezier & lattice setup in #b3d GP). Really interesting to see how rigs work compared to other software, quite different to what I’m used to 🤔 Next week, we’re animating 🥳
I've used DJV in the past to review image sequences, but there's always something that doesn't work/doesn't work well, so I've installed the Blender Studio Media Viewer template, even created a little launcher for it. Works incredibly well. https://studio.blender.org/blog/media-viewer-by-blender-studio/
Progress! Our aim was just to do the head today, but had to get that pot belly and cape in :) Think I'll be carrying on with one of the other characters in the next lesson. Thoughts on Harmony so far? Really nice, bit like a mish-mash of Moho and Blender
Only need one, but wanted to try a couple of different ideas. Hopefully by the end of tomorrow, one of these will be all vectorised, coloured and ready for rigging 🤘
No doubt a fringe case, but I'm rendering a scene in #b3d Cycles where a bottom of the line M1 Mac Mini is churning through frames faster than my RTX 2080Ti 🤨
I'm pleased to note that even https://dolphin.town, my Mastodon server where the only letter you are allowed to post is "e", has seen increased activity in the last few days.
Thanks Eeeeelon!
