Swiss Quality Animation: Dezember 2012
http://lukasniklaus.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Donnerstag, 6. Dezember 2012. This year ive seen more movies than ever before. I tried to see every animated film (made by the bigger studios) that came out. And of course i also love to discuss the quality of each and every movie. I love to comment and analyze and hear peoples opinions. Maybe its also just about the words people use when they state their opinion about a movie. It sucked soooo much, from beginning to end! Nothing good about it! The best thing was my friends name in the credits" and so on.

Swiss Quality Animation: Character
http://lukasniklaus.blogspot.com/2013/09/character.html
Montag, 23. September 2013. Today i saw this:. Not only is this very well engineered. What i find the most interesting here is, how he gave the box character. Its not just the stubborn machine like others weve seen that just turn themselves off. It has a mind of its own (a programmed one of course. but still) it even gets mixed up with itself at some point. I find that hilarious, refreshing and inspiring! I think that we should use this mindset for any animation we do. Mein Profil vollständig anzeigen.

Swiss Quality Animation: Mai 2012
http://lukasniklaus.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Mittwoch, 9. Mai 2012. After one brilliant year at Pixomondo, i unfortunately had to leave the company along with a couple of other people because there wasnt enough work to do. I might have to add that im sure i also got the job due to politics and MANY soho people who left to work at Pixomondo instead. so im pretty sure that a guy COMING from Pixomondo might be very welcome at soho). But anyways. im determined to show that i have more to offer than just my "heritage" hahaha. So im super happy right now.

Swiss Quality Animation: Februar 2013
http://lukasniklaus.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Donnerstag, 14. Februar 2013. Serious topics in animated films. I had to get sick to finally watch The Incredibles again. And while watching it, i noticed something i hadnt noticed before. But let me start somewhere else first. over a long time ive been complaining about studios not having the balls to put more adult material in their movies. That was one of the things that "disappointed" me the most in Brave. that there wouldve been a chance to make it much darker. Man Pixar. you just rock. :-). And i t...

Swiss Quality Animation: September 2013
http://lukasniklaus.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Freitag, 27. September 2013. Ive been practicing Python in the last couple of weeks and i wrote a little tool that i shared with my peers here at Framestore as well. Were animating run cycles and stuff where the characters main control is used for the movement in space. Which means, that feet have to be counter animated. Thats what this tool does. It either bakes the curves, or it keys the first and last frame in the range defined by the user and deletes all keys in between. Cheers and happy weekend.

Swiss Quality Animation: November 2013

Freitag, 22. November 2013. Why Animation Mentor is still #1. When i started AM, ther werent even half the online courses out there than there are today. It was an easy choice where to go and im so glad it was that easy. Animation Mentor is in my opinion the best online animation education out there and also tops many brick and mortar schools with ease. Im writing this to tell people that the exact opposite is the case. There are other courses like Animation collaborative or the just recently opened Anim...
