So now that classes are out of the way for the next few weeks, I finally got a chance to work on my online portfolio site. Really happy with the way it has turned out so far.
Still have lots of videos I want to upload of commercial animation, and some film projects.
Also going to be spending some time this week just messing around with Maya, working on my modelling skills, make some new shinies to post online.
I've also finally started to get back into sketching. (Love having some time for myself :) )
Been working on a tattoo design for a friend, as well as a compilation of drawings for my co-workers.
Over the summer I intend to get back to my concept art projects that I've had little time to work on, tired of neglecting them.
Also going to be starting to work on my new tail soon! so excited! will hopefully get some pictures and a new blog up and running for the mermaid side of life.
stay tuned!
be sure to check out the new portfolio: viral-concepts.weebly.com

End of Semester!
It's finally here! The last long work-filled days of the semester.
One class is officially over, animation has been handed in and final documentation completed.
Just completed a presentation for interactive interface and textile design, completed Running jacket that assists in training programs.
Now to finish documentation, video and a final Math Exam.
in the home stretch folks!
you can see my final projects for animation on 3d-fundamentals.weebly.com!

Quick Update!
so a few things!
yay! homework is getting done, been pounding out the maya today, got 2 weeks worth of homework done so far, and halfway through week 3 :) woot!
finally caught up on math practice, not feeling so panicked when I see matrices now. I will conquer this class, no matter what!
AND on a note that has nothing to do with school....
Finally started buying supplies to make my tail! so stoked, bought like 1 million sequins in every colour you could imagine, so both myself and Courtney Mermaid will have lots of shinies to put on our new tails.
Next step will be buying fabric and paint! really want to work on this and hopefully get it all sewn and completed before next semester starts! that gives me like 3 weeks to get supplies and work like crazy on it!
ok so it probably won't be done, BUT it'll be started! yay! goal is for both of us to have new tails by summer!!! gotta have those new scales all polished and looking good for the beach :)
We also had an exciting encounter at the pool the other night, got to meet another mermaid! go figure! we knew there were a few mermaids floating around Vancouver, but who would have thought that there would be more of us swimming in the same pool!
this calls for a tail meet!!

I officially feel terrible...
So I have neglected to update this blog for so long! I feel terrible.
School has kind of taken over and I'm amazed I can even fit in a fraction of something that resembles a social life. BUT on the plus side, we're past half way through the semester, and things will be ending sooner than I know it.
So far we've been working on vector math and linear algebra, programming electronic textiles and making 3D-animations.
Been updating my 3D blog like crazy for class
solo webpage: 3d-fundamentals.weebly.com
group webpage: babyandthebeast.weebly.com
For the next few weeks will mainly be updating and working on my animation group project. Got a movie to make folks! and can only hope it will be good. Have some amazing modellers in my group :) looking forward to this :)
As for electronic textiles, working on a scarf that detects temperature. it'll wind up closer to the wearer's neck when the temperature drops, and uncoil when it warms up. Pretty nifty eh?
And well Math is Math...whole class is a little worried about our next midterm coming up next week (wish me luck) BUT hopefully, we will all survive it.
Also registration for classes next semester is coming up next week. Only going to have one class a week next semester YAY! ANNNNNND....drumroll please........I get to register for GRADUATION! Finally! so excited about this!
with the "spare time" i'll have next semester, going to be working my butt off on a 3D animation and modelling portfolio. Needs to be awesome if I'm going to get a job anywhere, or at least get in as an intern or PA.
Life is going to start really soon folks! Really soon :)
Will update again soon, probably next week and let you all know how things are going :)

I'm Trying...
Trying desperately to keep updating this blog along with my other two. Things have been crazy with homework and such.
If you wanna see what I'm up to check out these sites:
babyandthebeast.weebly.com
3d-fundamentals.weebly.com
320interface.blogspot.com
Little explanation on each:
2 are for a 3D-animation class, our final group project as well as an individual webpage for lab exercises and portfolio pieces.
the other is body interface design, using MAX5 to create GUI's (graphical user interfaces) as well as interactive experiences between human and machine.

Webpage Upgrade!
Updating the ol' website, figured that Viral Concepts needed a make over..soo slowly in the works. Looks a little dull right now. Portfolio is starting to look nice, but still needs a lot of love :)
Should hopefully be all fixed and purdy by the coming weekend (as long as nothing explodes in my face...as things generally do).
Portfolio is going to have a new area to check out as well...drum roll please....3-D Rendering! YAY!
finally getting some 3-D stuff up, basic stuff granted, but its still 3-D! so stay tuned for more awesomeness :D

Up and Coming Awesomeness!
Greetings fans!
From the ashes arise a new breed of artists...
So some exciting news! Doing a 3-D collaboration with Capt'n Stewie (http://captnstewie.blogspot.com/). Going to be totally awesome!
Already worked out all the 2-D line art, and now the 3-D awesomness shall commence!
in other words, we are creating a 3-D concept art piece. Myself, drawing the 2-D layout and colour mapping, while the good Capt'n will be creating the world in Maya.
Going to be awesome when it's completed. Don't want to give too much away on the topic of the piece, but Stewie and I will be updating throughout the project to show you what is happening along the way!
Stay tuned for something "Wonderous"!
