Its the Final Pole Vaaaaaaaault

I decided to fix the pole vault some more because now that i see it fixed the old way sucked. Thanks every one for the 80 views on the previous pole vault tho! thats awesome. Lets see if this one can beat it! I also decided to vut out the thumbs up at the end of the video. I never had a problem with it then one of my friends suggested to take it out so i looked at it without it and i think it helps it stay funny without the thumbs u. after viewing it again with the thumbs up after i took it out i realized it kinda just made the piece drag on. So ive decided to cut it.

Anyways here is the latest and final version of the polevault! I hope you enjoy

Horses with Four Legs and Nubs, OH MY!

So Ive been animating a lot lately got 3 projects going on right now! I was slightly terrified of animating something with four legs but i pushed through it! The project isnt finished yet but I got some cycles to show you guys

This is the first part of the project the walk cycle

Pole Vaulting Final?

 So a while back i kept laughing at that stupid line from land of the lost for one of those inspirational posters. It said if you dont make it its your own damn vault and it had a picture of a pole vaulter and i kept laughing about it so it inspired me to do a pole vaulting animation. I needed some more physical stuff for my reel anyways so it just seemed to make sense to go ahead and do it. the piece is finally finished! I think haha  Check it out yo

I wasnt completely satisfied with my piece i submitted but i guess someone liked it because i sold it! Woohoo!!! It was pretty exciting when everyone at the comic book store kept telling me i sold my piece.

I was finally able to find an animal rig that seems pretty decent so now for my next piece of animation ive decided to try and animate a horse! Its gonna be intense ive never animated  quadruped before. Heres a picture of the horse.
