Final Projects!

It's that time again....

my final project for Props and Environments, a three page short story, turned out to be the most girly thing I've done in quite a while. And I still can't get the hang of digitally adding gray scale. It's inexplicable. But this was a fun project regardless. :D

For Shawn's Visual Story Telling II class, I decided to do the backstory of a couple of under-developed characters from a book I pitched Oni a while back. I'm crunched for time on this one, and yeah, still not sure what I'm doing with my inks, so I just sorta decided to go a little far out and crazy with at least this part of the story. XD; I LOVE COLOR :O!

BACK TO FINALS WORK. NO SLEEP FOR CARA FOR A WHILE :(

Someday I'll be cool...

Man, once I get started I just can't stop, can I?
Seems like all the cool kids are posting pencils these days, so in an effort to be hip, here're the roughs for my final project ;P

(I'm going to eliminate panel two--the empty one-- and just extend panel three, other wise the pacing is all wonky)

So, I gotta finish inking these suckers, use Illustrator to throw some word balloons on some OTHER pages I just finished coloring with Photoshop, rough out an eight page western, and wrap up a break down and finish up character designs for another project I'm working on.

I gotta tell ya, I'm glad I get to go home for vacation next week @_@ Hopefully I wont be going home to yet another debacle where my parents threaten to not let me return. Again. If they do, you all have permission to call them and leave angry voicemails. I'm more confident this time, at least, since now I have an apartment here, and, you know, I cant leave all my shit here >8[

I don't know what's up with all of these videos lately. But me and my friend Matt (A.K.A. Scott Pilgrim A.K.A. Jim Halpert) were in the Temple of Cartoon Mojo at like, 2 in the morning, and it seemed like a good time to make a video blog. So enjoy, and grab a peek at my storyboards 8D



Dear Professors that may watch this,

I was kidding about the BSing thing. Really. You know me, I'm a serious business art student. I'm just... somewhat lazy 8D;;; AT LEAST I ADMIT IT ;_; I'll get better, I promise.

Love,

Cara

OH MAN, SHORT STORY AND STORYBOARDING FINALS IN... A FEW HOURS. SO NOT READY YET ;___;

...you know, I still haven't figured out how to add titles to my posts.... sigh. And here I had you all fooled that I knew my way around HTML.
