We'll be releasing this very appealing, as trolls go, and expressive rig to our students in just a few weeks of this current semester. We're always amazed at what our animation students come up with when animating with our rigs. Watch this animated expression test by Jason Ryan.

Here is the final rendered shot from one of Jason's live weekly demos he did in our Summer 2016 term for all the iAnimate.net students. It was a great line of dialog to use with 'Albert', one of our many feature level rigs.

Marty is an industry ready rig we've teased about in past newsletters and on the blog, and is ready to be released in the coming weeks to our students. Our very own Jason Ryan has been testing the rig with some dynamic poses as well as a fun little animation. Marty has been modeled by the very talented Juan Solis and rigged by the renowned Victor Vinyals. We're excited to see what our students do with this stylized and rich character.

We love animating! And who doesn't love animating fun & unique characters? We just released our adorable little blue monkey rig designed by the talented Goro Fujita, and Thales Simonato as the 3D character artists. This is a fun and challenging character to animate, and we can't wait to see the shots our current and future students produce with it.

He's Back! And With A New Workshop. Jamaal Bradley took some time off from teaching at iAnimate to pursue some unique career opportunities. During his hiatus he traveled to India where he was an Animation Supervisor on Penguins of Madagascar. He's currently enjoying working directly with James Baxter, Chris Sanders, & Kirk DeMicco as an Animation Supervisor on Croods 2. He's back with a new Feature workshop - Advanced Pantomime Acting. In this class your animated piece will be an exploration of making your character entertain, evoke emotion, and breath life without the use of dialogue. This is an essential skill in your journey as an animator and entertainer. "Together we will build an understanding of thoughts and actions that will drive our characters." - Jamaal
