Caricatures of Viborg



Denmark

Hey friends and neighbors just got back from Viborg in Denmark. They have a school for animators and cartoonists, really nice, located on an old Danish army base. I was there a few weeks to teach, really just to advise and guide. My fellow teachers did the real teaching such as assignments, lecturing, and such. I mainly gave tips and pointers on drawing characters, composing shots, and storyboard mechanics. The class was for 2nd year students. The class was assigned to make a 30 second animated trailer for a well known live-action movie, using Maya. When they are done, I will post some on the blog or send a link. When I figure out how to unzip the files I will post some photos and caricatures of the students and some more goodies.
