My submission for the Skills Alberta 2020 2D/3D animation contest. (Update - It won Gold!) The video is a mix of both 2D and 3D techniques (including - Chroma key, parallax, track mattes, keyframing, stop motion, 3D rendered objects, 3D physics simulation for sails, animation modifiers, alpha masking, opacity keyframing & lumetri colour adjustments. All scenes, objects (except the boat) and backgrounds were handpainted & animated by me, as well as the character and effects. The only things I did not make are the Music (Little Talks - Of Monsters and Men) and a few small assets (fire, birds, butterflies) which came from Footagecrate. I used Photoshop to paint my backgrounds, and Adobe After Effects to animate everything. Finally, I imported the finished clips into Premiere Pro for colour-correcting, transitions and sound effects. I used Blender to render the boat, trees in 3D. I used a homemade dolly (3d printed car on a sloped board with the camera attached) and a greenscreen I painted on the wall of my room to pull off the stop motion animation. (the last few scenes were video with frames removed to give it a stop motion effect) I really wish I wasn't constrained by the 30-second limit (WAYYY TOO SHORT) so the pacing might be a little off - but overall I'm really happy with how it turned out! For SEO - Gold medal winner in the 2020 Skills Alberta 2020 2D/3D animation category. For more, check out my website: https://www.colinfearing.com/

The base planet (including water, plains, and mountains) were generated procedurally with python code that I wrote. The materials are also procedurally applied based on certain conditions. The clouds were randomly generated and the rest of the objects I modelled previously. Everything was scattered around the planet with a particle system, and several animations were added. Note: Color corrected in Premier with several effects added (bloom, tin and chromatic aberration) Website: https://www.colinfearing.com Sorry for the square video... Also - The planet is stationary, and the camera is simply rotating around it (rather than the sun and moon fixed to the planet's rotation)

This is the trailer for the new videogame I’ve been working on - Shotblock! It was made in Unity, and almost everything was made entirely by me. It has 16 levels, all packed full of mechanics including - AI pathfinding, Realistic Physics, Destruction, Parkour, Puzzles, Explosions, Targets, Collectables, Objectives & Randomly generated enemies. The game is still in development, but it is totally playable! A whole lot of techniques were used to make the mechanics of this game work correctly. A follow-up video will be released soon showing the behind the scenes and code. In the meantime, feel free to check out my website: https://www.colinfearing.com/

A short animation I created in Blender.

The ancient world of Greece.

Rendered in Blender.

Here is a simple animation I made using Blender. Blender is a free 3D modeling and physics program which can be used to create almost anything! I created a fluid simulation, used the remesh modifier to add the lego effect and added the HDRI / textures. Then I added the camera movement and rendered it. The whole project took about three hours for one 8 second video.

Rendered in Blender using the Particle physics add on.
