The Spark

My own creativity and style came about when I read a lot of comics when I was just a kid. I remember tracing out my favourite pokemon with rice paper I snatched from the kitchen. I would trace them out an indulge on their cute little designs and cool superpowers.

Throughout, I began thinking about making my own characters. To me it felt like as though I was like god for a moment when I drew out my first few simple characters. Soon after that, I took after the idea of it when I learned that some cartoonist drew whacky characters because it was the only medium that gave their ideas life.

A Character Design I did of myself

By the time I reached 13, I began trying out other mediums to play around with my work. I improved, but not because I thought I needed to. I just had a lot of fun with what I did.
Currently, my preferred form of mediums are traditional pen and paper. My tools of the trade include but not limited to Fountain pens, Rapidographs, Markers and Brush pens.

Week 1 of 3D Animation Production – "JQK Studios"

Good evening,  Today marks the first week of 3D Animation Production, where i work in a team of 3 people – myself included – to pitch and produce a 1 minute animation.  The group comprises, Chua Suqin, Joash Lee, and myself. Both Suqin and I are specialised in 3D animation, and Joash is specialised in Character Animation. In this role combination, we're hoping that two people would work on designing the assets, characters, and environment and the third to be the one animating the motions.  We're called JQK Studios which is an acronym of our initials. Creative aye? and currently i'm designing the logo for our studio. We're still in the pitching phase. I can't disclose openly here just yet about what we're working on, but soon after the pitch to our mentors and esteemed classmates, we'll be able to share on what's in the works. Stay tune. – Koda

 Good Evening, This week's progress has shifted quite a bit as a lot of other works have gotten in our way for a brief period.  I am now tasked with texturing the models and characters while Suqin handles rigging and Joash to handle the animation tests.  That is all for now.

Webinar Time!

For my next assignment in Fundamentals for Creative Professionals, we were tasked to attend some webinars and understand the medias used in the big industries.  The webinars I attended were called " Demystifying Post-Production | Color Correction and Grading: Designing Creative Looks & Grades " and " Media Composer: Working with Color Corrections ".
