MV Lift off - 2007

2010-02-11T00:49:00.000-08:00

Hi folks,

Roughly 3 years ago, a few of us (3 to be exact), huh! 3 years ago, 3 people, coincidence, well anyways decided to form mv-grafix studio, at that time we started with an ambitious project V5, a tale of five super hero kids, although slated to be a full length feature, it got turned into a mini series and then into a TV series, although progress at that end has been slow, mv has since then moved on to greener pastures. If you are reading this in India and are in anyways connected with the animation industry here then you will know what I mean by Greener pastures, yes you guessed it right E-Learning, if those guys at edu-comp could do it then why not us.

In these 3 years mv has seen a lot of ups and ups but we also had clients who stole our ideas and did not give us a cent, but at the end of the day it’s been all good.

What else do I put in a blog, let me think about it, I know guys this must not have been the most exciting read, but I promise I’ll come up with something more interesting next time round.

Signing off for mv blog (I always wanted to either say it or at least type it)

From around 40,000 at the turn of the last century, there are just 1411 tigers left in India.
What started as a Royal Sport during the olden times is now a target of Poaching and Depleting Habitat. Our National Animal is fighting for its life!

Free reference figures for Designers and Artists

2010-02-03T02:54:00.000-08:00

If you are a budding artists, character designer or illustrator there are bound to be times when you need human figure reference. I was recently looking for some books to help with figure drawing and showed different poses but in the process of searching came across a website that could really help.

Characterdesigns.com is a website which provides resources and information for artists, illustrators and designers, one of these resources being figure reference photos of people in different poses. There are several sets of photo poses which you can chose from a drop down menu. The figures include action, facial expression, nudes and figures in costume. Although some are a little rigid/posed they are a good starting point for getting proportions etc right.

Also on the site are photos of events such as fashion shows and anime expos, all again which can act as good reference for drawing the human figure. There is also a section where artists and illustrators can display there work and a forum too. As this site grows I think it could become an excellent resource for artists and designers alike.
