"...if you do anime and plan to put it in your portfolio, just don't. You won't be accepted. As one teacher in the illustration department says..Theres a whole country that can do it better than you, so why should you do it." - Onceuponastar

Har har.

Sketchies

Some sketch i did in a friend's drawing book.


If my dog was human... in a manga. lol!

Portfolio Day!

Wow, I had lots of fun! I got many good reviews and comments! :D Fixing up my portfolio was a real life saver. I didn't quite get the review I wanted to hear from Calarts, but the other schools were very pleasant. School of Visual Arts (New York), Laguna School of Art and Design, and most of all, Ringling College of Art and Design!

Calarts said that I wasn't quite up to par to the level of Character Animation - She said I had to draw life drawing like I "breath" - But she seemed to suggest to me to try out for their Experimental Animation, since I had storytelling qualities. But Calart's Experimental Animation kinda turns me off. hehe. Anyhoot, I'll just try to apply for Calarts next year, and in the meantime just focus on RCAD and LCAD.

Portfolio under renovation!

My room is in such a mess. lol! But it's a creative mess?

Recoloring/Redrawing some of my portfolio peices to bring them up to par more:

Couple of self portrait sketches:

(Hi, I'm Crimmy and I have a crooked smile addiction.)

I still haven't applied to any schools. lawlz. And I've already missed the CalArts and Ringling deadline. My next possible try is the school in Laguna. I can do it!

I'm planning to make my next semester of schooling intense!
Tentative Schedule:
I've been reading, "Illusion of Life", "Animator's Survival Kit", and "Perspective". And I'm currently taking Rendering at PCC. I plan to be ready for the portfolio process!

And I'll also be going to the Portfolio Day in Otis on Sunday. Sooooo, wish me luck! Or rather, wish me some talent!
