Ninja Sword Animation

Posted on February 15, 2024 by BandOfOne

I’m trying to broaden my animation reel with some different styles and types of shot during some down-time. This one was a LOT of fun to work on.

This is all Blender since I’m coming off of a Blender production and enjoying animating in that at the moment. Fun playing with some effects too!

Tone Quest

Posted on January 30, 2024 by BandOfOne

Tone Quest is an illustrated story and concept album of instrumental music.

The term Illustrumentals is coyly proffered as an explanation for something that grew naturally out of creative necessity. 

I’ve been freely following my creativity for a while now. Disconnecting from social media and the subtle pressures of delivering so called “content” has been just what I needed. Purely following my interests and enthusiasm has taken me on a path into drawing music related art, and then into making little music clips as soundtracks to the images. And I ended up making an illustrated concept album of instrumental music.

This project feels like a very natural outlet for my creative urges.
