Amazing animation by a French graphic designer call Olivier Beaudoin. It look 2D but I think is made with a 3D software because the animation have this perspective and depth that 3D programs does.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVPfTlpCKaw&feature=related

British museum project. This is my latest animation. I used hand drawing animation as a technique and I made my drawing with ink. The animation got this yellow colour because I wanted to look like old, like the thing kept in a museum. I am not very happy with the editing and is something I would like to improve. for instance, the music is not properly set up not having fade in and out when is needed, and some sound effect are missing.
Overall, I am very happy with the final result.

Lcc group animation 2011. This project was an animation group we did with the sound student in London College of Communication. I wrote the script and the mood board in the pre production stage, so the animation is based in my ideas. In the production, I did all the sand animation bit and the other guys did the flash bit. In the post production; I did the title and credits and the other guys did the editing; The techniques we used were: hand drawing animation in flash and sand animation in a multiplane set up rostrum camera. I enjoy so much the production process because, I was in charge of the sand animation and the process was about experimentation; first, because I changed the colour of the sand using different food coloring and food spices. second, because I play with the sand in the shooting and was a very good experience.
In the beginning I felt that the animation was somehow unfinished, perhaps because all the problems that bring to work with other people. However, I felt very please of the final result after we polished it.
