Concept Art – CDS23022009 – Creation Process
Sunday, March 1st, 2009
CDS23022009 – Creation Process – High Quality – This is another test for capturing my work process on screen. This design looks much better than the previous one. That’s at least what i think. It’s a neat, slick and speedy flyer we got here. I noticed that i did not have the palettes on screen while working… so in the following, not this one, video i changed my photoshop layout from dualscreen to singlescreen so you can see a bit more what’s happening in the palettes.
Depending on how the juices flow it’s 30/60mins time in these designs.
Hope you can get some inspiration off of this. =)

Since, these days, i’m not a too inspired artist, i tried something i wanted to do for a while now. Recording the progress of my painting work on the screen. Now i know that live recording, while working in a memory hungry program like photoshop, can significantly slow down the whole machine. So ‘working’ becomes a pain in the a**. For now i only tried recording some of my concept work. Right now that means rough space ship designs like the ones you can see in the 
When i submitted the video to the various video galleries on the net, i also asked for sound designers who might be interested in doing some tunes for the shot. I think sound and music lift certain movies into higher spheres… especially when it’s atmospheric thick setups like the short movie i did with that painting. Music and sound helps to transfer the actual idea to viewer much much better. Two people contacted me because of my request. One made me a nice sound effect and the other created a very cool music piece.
Here we are for another fine animation of one of my paintings. Once again a lot of work went into it and i hope it makes the experience/feeling of the painting itself a bit more like it represents a window to a different world. It’s not as spectacular as the w.o.l.f animation but nonetheless cool looking. I also took the opportunity to make a single video for the w.o.l.f project too. Find the link below…
It is done! After 3 weeks, of learning by doing, i finished my animation project. I prepared a high and a low res. xvid video for you to download. It’s 2:45 minutes long and with sound. I’m pretty proud of the result. It’s a nice feeling to see one of your worlds come to life. I must admit i could have worked another week on that monster, but i seriously have spent too much time on it now. It’s the first time i made an animation or movie/video at all and i hope the work pays off. I also hope you enjoy what you see.
