Lets Animate | Free animation tutorials!

Hi, I was hoping that would catch your attention.

It's been a minute or so since my last post

I won't start this with the usual "'I need to get back into posting / Updates coming soon!" thing that you see on most artists neglected websites.

Truth is, I post fairly regularly on social media (mainly Twitter) and this blog has taken a back seat in the absence of any recent long form content.

With that said, here's a brief update of what's happened since my last post in 2017:

• Got nominated for an Annie Award for my work on Hellblade and went to the ceremony in L.A (which was mind-blowing and so surreal).
• Made a slight career move and said goodbye to my home of 8 years at Ninja Theory to start at Playground Games as Principal Animator on an unannounced project (still super excited!)
• Started teaching Games Workshop 1 at iAnimate. I've done 4 semesters and it's been very fun and rewarding.
• Started streaming on Twitch.

Yes, I guess I'm a streamer now!

The main goal of my Twitch channel is to provide an over the shoulder view of how I approach animation. I've learned a lot over the years just watching others work and I wanted to try and give others that same opportunity. There's no set agenda, just me working on what I want to work on and sharing the process with those who are interested with a light sprinkle of Q&A.

The series is called Lets Animate! and I'm currently working on a combat sequence inspired by games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. It usually runs around 2 hours and I've done a few ( 7 I think?) so there 14+ hours of animation workflow to catch up on.
