Sheridan Animation Portfolio 2013

UPDATE: March 25th 2013 Accepted into Sheridan Animation Program!!
I hope that this portfolio will inspire and help anyone trying to get into Animation at Sheridan College. 
It took me three years to get in, so no matter what if this is your dream keep fighting for it! 
Best of luck to anyone applying, and I hope you enjoy!

As many of you may know this is my third year trying to get into the "Bachelor of Fine Arts : Animation" program at Sheridan College. It is a world renowned program and it has been my dream since I was in grade 2... seriously. 

Last year I was very close to getting into the program, but after appealing and such it just didn't happen. Anyways, it is due Monday February 25th.  I am happy with how it turned out this year and I hope you all enjoy it!

The lighting is different in each picture because I took some in the morning (which had lovely natural light) then re-took them just now (for lots were blurry).

Endless Seas - A tunnel book..

In 3D class we had the option of making either a 3 page pop up book, or 3 package designs relating to fairy tales, myths, fantasy etc.  Instead I chose to do a tunnel book. Basically it will become clear once you see the photographs, but a tunnel book is a series of layered images, that appear to create one image when closed, then expands to show more detail. 

This book is called Endless Seas
I hope you enjoy it!

Title page

The poem I wrote which this book illustrates...

"come with me to the endless seas, escape your fears and sorrow
what troubles you feel, will soon disappear
keep swimming until tomorrow"

The images layered on top of one another

The expanded version!

There is a cute little narwhal revealed when expanded :)

There are a lot of details on each page, which unfortunately doesn't completely translate into the tunnel.
