Artist's Comments

This is another shot I animated while at Idustrial Light and Magic. The Nexu cat creature was one of the main creatures I was responsible for on Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones. I developed this creature from the ground up. This shot went through many revisions, I beleive 7 different blockings were done untill finally George settled on this. The actual animation of this shot took about 5 weeks. There are 5 characters total in this shot - all done by hand. The hardest part of the the shot was the creatures tail - which took alot of work to make sure it felt smooth and also dynamic. The cave is a miniture set - all characters are CG. Star Wars and this image is Copywrite of Lucas Films Limited 2002.

cool work.I saw that the designer drew some design, after a sculptor modeled it in 3D and after you model with computer from the sculpture, or you animated the 3D? if you just animate it it's a great job too, it's just beacause I'm sculptor I'm interested to know the process....

Hey man, thanks for the kind words. The designer drew this creature on paper - then Sculpture (i am not sure who that was) sculpted him and sorta changed him up abit. And it looked awesome! So we modeled him in 3D and after I did some animation test with the creature - we made small tweaks to his proportions for better movement. That's pretty much how he came to life. I am sorry I do not know the name of the sculpture artist... i have still of the Sculpt if you would like to see them. Send me an e-mail address and I will forwards them over.
