Have some more Titeuf Instead

There wasn't any life drawing this week :( So much for getting back into it! Hopefully next week!
So in the meantime here is a video that recently went up - It has a very quick look around the animation studio and speaks to some of the creators behind 'Titeuf Le Film', and don't blink..... when the video sets off to some funky music (around 2min50), you'll see me hard at work (with a shockingly bad posture)! Oh and it's in French.....


The official website also went up (nothing particularly impressive, but there are some clips - which aren't particularly the best either!) Click Here
Click 'C'est Parti' and then you have to click really fast for a while on the paper - Don't ask me why! :/

'Till the Next,
L

hey thanks for stopping by my blog again. im really really happy that you think im progressing, does alot for my morale. im just trying to follow your advise and trying to draw all the time!!
i also found a book called 'force' which has a lot about rhythm, but haven't really had the chance to read it due to work load, plus still need to get through the Stanchfield books.
one quick question if you don't mind. how do u approach caricature??im not too sure how to really include it in my gesture drawings?sorry if thats a bit vague.
please do keep checking on me, i need all the guidance i can get!
massive thanks again

@Ash
Thank goodness you are here to put me in my place!

@Tim
lol, thanks dude!

@Tori
Yayie!!! :)

@Alex
Well done Sir! I hope you were not confused by me putting 'around 2min50', when Ash so clearly pointed out that it was in fact 2min57! :D

@Frankie
Dude, i'm not too good on the old caricature front - I tend to just draw it how I see it.... Character Design isn't my thang (my characters tend to all look alike!)
But from an observational standpoint, I guess just have fun - play on traits that stand out the most and at the end of the day, people are only going to see your drawings, so whether it resembles the subject or not, only you will you ever know!

Nice one Mr Rossi. Man that studio looks cool. Was it? Hope your well Mang. I'm yet to play mvc3. :(

@Wes Yo dude, I'm all good thanks. Yeah it 'felt' like a proper Animation Studio you know... I think the desks helped a lot - they were the old Disney desks and were sweeet. Little things like (you can see in the video) the peg bar is attached to the disc and can be slid along, meaning if you turned the disc, you can slide the peg bar so the paper is in the perfect position.
I want one!
Yo i'm not that good at MvC3 anymore! People caught up! Search "Final Round xiv Combofiend", There's some hype matches.
Hope your good,
