Beam saber Tutorial

I really had fun making this tutorial, even though I was so tired, I can't pull myself out of my desk and sleep. For this tutorial, we'll teach you how to animate beam sabers the "Anaheim hobby" way! 

To imitate this style of  animation, you'll need the following:

 

lol, just watch the video so you'll understand =)

Inside Unicorn Gundam

I did some photoshop editing to imitate the Gundam Unicorn Cockpit view so I can use it someday on my stop motion series. Here are some examples of the HUDs I've edited, you can use them if you want, I don't really own them or anything=)

And if you put one of the HUDs on layer with a stop motion video that was meant to be on first person view, it'll result to a realistic immitation of being on a cockpit =)

Inside the Gundam

I tested some HUD files I found on the net and tried molding them with a video of mine. Not as Dynamic as I thought it would be but it's a start =) 







*Metroid HUD

In anticipation of Gundam Unicorn episode 2's release,Bandai released a preview of the first 14 minutes of the show where we can see Unicorn Destroy mode in action.  Here's part 1 of the preview:

You can download the whole 14 min long video HERE =)

Stop-motion Tutorials: Shooting

A bunch of friends online once pm'ed me to make a turtorial about how I did my effects. I've given some thought about it for quite some time now and I figured that if I split the tutorial to parts, I might be able to pull it off even with my busy schedule. I've never done a tutorial before so don't bash me if this video sucked -___-

War in the Closet Presentation

One of the presentations I made for an upcoming toy convention, it's sorta like an intro to my stop motion series =)
