Stormtrooper

So I went to Wondercon today and was let down by myself because I don't think I used my time and resources that well. I saw some fantastic artist that I should have talked too and saw some great costumes I should have taken pictures with. I felt like I wasted the time this convention had given me but after it was all over it really inspired me. So this was a little sketch I drew on the iPad and after weeks of wanting to draw I actually did some today.

So it didn't turn out bad at all as this little get together of very creative people help me get out of my funk. So enjoy and I hope to be drawing more soon. Enjoy!

Thoughts

I'm sorry to say I don't have anything new to show at the moment. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks I can post some artwork on here and maybe some video stuff (video stuff probably a couple of months from now). I just wanted to keep you all informed and know that I know there is still a blog out there with my name on it. I need to start doing some sketching again as well and haven't had the time to do anything with all this video work I have to do. So lets all hope to see some new work on here soon, sketches or final artwork. In the mean time have a great time on what ever you are doing and I'll see you next time! Antastic

Motion Graphics and Storyboards!

Well storyboards aren't really posted on this post BUT! they are on my online portfolio if you want to take a look at them. Just follow my personal website link to the right of the screen (it should be there under my links)then head over to my gallery and go under storyboards.So the video I have above is something I worked on and is also available on my website along with another video I am uploading that shouldn't take more that 20 more minutes to finish but I'll post that video up here too when its done. Either way enjoy watching and if you go to my website enjoy that as well!Look forward to ALOT of stuff I will be posting soon including more animations and illustrations. Antastic

Sneak adee Peak

Good news everyone! ...I have art to show! Here is a sneak peak for a project I'm working on and hopefully you can and cannot tell whats going on (maybe you people have good vision and can tell whats going on so oh well!). Lots more stuff to come in the future (aka near the beginning of next year) but I'll slip in these small little peaks here and there along with other sketches. Enjoy! Antastic

Kids Toy Escape...its for the kids....*UPDATE*

Why yes....another app I did artwork for. Designed for the young folks out there who have parents that let there little ones play with there iPhones and iPads! I'm attaching the art sheet for the game which includes each character and background with in the game. The great thing about this game is there are NO in app purchases, all the characters are unlocked and I think for $.99 on both devices...if I am not mistaken. Anyway take a look at the art, the game, and of course Reverend Lovejoys wife always thinking about the kids ( and hope you all know that I own no copyright to The Simpson image or any trademark :) )

FYI...to search for the game on your iThingy just type in "Kids Toy Escape" in the search engine. Enjoy!

UPDATE:

More zombies and the Tordo...

Thought I post some artwork...

The zombie design was something I did last month for "The Boonies", good news for that story though! There is a AWESOME new add on with the story that I think will really make this concept far beyond what I had dreamed it would be. The second drawing is a caricature of my Uncle Roly that I did for him last year for his birthday. I had totally forgotten that I drew this and was looking thru my design folder and found it! So I thought I just throw it on here to give you all some eye candy to look at.

On a side note I found out that this weekend Zombie Breakout was placed in Apple's "New and Noteworthy" for Germany! All very exciting news for everyone involved in the project and glad people in Germany like themselves some zombie crushing. Until next time!

Zombie Breakout!

Hey there,

I got great news and art! First I have a game on the app store and not just a game I was contracted to do art for but a GAME! What does this mean? Well it means this is something I created along with a Developer, Matt Doyle, for the last two weeks. Its a real simple game about crushing zombies escaping from their graves. Lots of cool in app items you can get and a nice soundtrack.

I'm also posting some of the artwork for the game, just character designs and background layout. You'll be able to take a look at the game in the itunes store or the links below:

iPhone Version
iPad Version

Take a look and hope you enjoy!

***UPDATE***





Some artwork from the game

Yeah...I know... (SORRY I WROTE TOO MUCH)

So I am reading this book about young entrepreneur's and how they all have made very successful business and I was reading one of them that had said roughly "having a blog or youtube page isn't going to get alot of traffic if you don't update it on a regular basis."

Yeah....I've been kind of bad at that. I could say I have a good excuse but I don't. I actually have lots of stuff to share and its both animation and design work. I've been doing lots of animation work like Motion Graphics, titling, and even Flash Animation. Currently I'm working on a iPod game, doing some design work and creating animations. When its all finished I'll put what I have done up here and give you a link to my website so you can view the cools animation on a Flash file I am going to make for them.

And if those of you that didn't know or I never even mention it, this month will be my 7 month working at a Pacific Communications in Costa Mesa, yay! I do motion graphics, animation, and video and sound editing there for lots of medical products. Anyway, I actually had the opportunity to do some illustration work there! I did some illustrations/caricatures of some of the companies higher ups. So I have attached......actual art. Note that the tug boat guy is not my full design. What I had done was take a stock image given to me (the boat, character, water), switch the head out for the person I did the caricature of, edited the image, cutting out the boat and water, doing some color changes, and BAM! you have what you see below. Then I have two versions of the same drawing, one is holding a martini and the other some type of non-alcholoic beverage. I want to give a close up of the hand cause I think that was my most favorite part to draw.

To be honest I hadn't drawn in a while and these were the first fully rendered drawings I had done in months. They have there ups and downs but I'm really glad I was able to draw. Hopefully I will be able to post more drawings in the next couple weeks (some of my own and some of actual work), however, if I don't I do actually have lots of old drawings I never posted online that I might put up, mostly as a filler and for me to type.

Ok I've talk to long, hope you enjoy and for those who read this blog (or did) feel free to shoot me a message any time to talk or say something and for your future clients of mine out there......I vary much appreciate you taking your time to view my collection work and glad you have stumbled upon the thoughts and visuals of Anthony Garcia.

Antastic...OUT!

1.21 gigawatts!

Hello out there! So I have been quite busy with lots of animation, motion graphic, video, and art stuff and some of the projects are complete and some are not. So, what I have to show today is some still shots of a project I have been working on that consist of what I like to call 'fake 3D text'. This way I can do 3D text without a 3D program but it is very limited to what you can do. I want to start doing some more 3D with my motion graphic pieces and do intend to do some 3D stuff for my animated short. Speaking of my animated short....I really haven't done much. I did draw out the suited zombie and sketched out what the other two zombies will look like. There is also a script completed but I probably will go back and revise it.....maybe. Anyway, enjoy these images and I will have to say that I was taken back on the lighting effect I could do in after effects.

Antastic

Great Scott!

Yes I am stil alive, just have been working on new projects and supposedly being a 'grown up'. I do, however, have some new stuff to show! Granted these are screen caps from animation and motion graphic projects I have been working on they still some of my artistic ability with them. I hope everyone enjoys and if some of you out there are still wondering if I am even working the THE BOONIES story....yes! I have finished a roughs script for the story and will next be doing more drawings of the zombies and some of the surroundings. Hopefully I can get this together and finish it because I will NOT let this go to waste.

Alright then, Antastic out!

Drawings...?

Well these are not new drawings or sketches but my blog is lacking in the updates so here you go!

These were concepts for a potential animated series for a company I worked for a couple of months ago. I think the project is being put on the back burner but I was able to do some development work for one of the many characters. So here you go and for those following the blog I would like to share some goodness with you all:

I am currently working as a contractor for a company that will hopefully keep me on for more projects and it looks like they have a whole bunch coming! Things are looking good people...things are looking good...for now...

Antastic!

Studies

I really have not been drawing that much due to the fact that I have been doing lots more Motion Graphics and Animation stuff lately. I also want really do some more for my animation project "The Boonies" and am going to do some more full body zombies and poses for Greg and Jessica. I'm still writing the script for the story so hopefully that can get done during the weekend or at most a rough.

Anyway, I was able to do some sketches tonight and decided to share with you what I did. Enjoy and look forward to knew stuff, drawings and animation!

Antastic

No art update but some animation update!

Hello out there!

Yeah I know....no artwork but I do have a good excuse for not having any on here for a while. Recently I was hired as a contracted to work at this company, Pacific Communication doing Motion Graphics and Photoshop work. Which is great because I now can have some more commercial pieces in my Motion Graphic reel.

But don't fear followers! I am writing the script for the short 'The Boonies' you have been seeing here for the last couple of post. I have always had the idea in my head but know I need to write it down so I can start making some storyboards too. Hope this post keeps informed about what Mr. Anthony Garcia is doing and that everything is good on everyone else side. Until next time!

So The Van....

I am having trouble drawing the interior to The Van because I do not usually drawing interiors or places that much...

So! What I plan to do in the mean time is draw up some zombies for the story and hold back on drawing the interior shots until I am more comfortable drawing those type of images. However, do not think I will just stop and not even try to draw that kind of stuff! Hopefully I can talk to my dear friend Humberto to help me out with the design and look of those places cause I know he can come up with some crazy stuff.

In the mean time I am working on a couple projects for Motion Graphics and Flash Animation so my time is take up during most of the day and that leaves the night for me to draw! Look out for some zombies later on then!

I've updated my website!

Hello out there,

So recently I have been doing lots of freelance work for my character design and motion graphic what not. At my website I have updated my gallery section with lots of new images for you too see which includes some comic characters, animation characters, and caricatures. I just finished doing the art for a Facebook game and hopefully you will be able to see that on my site at the end of the month. I also am working on a comic book that will be used as a prop for a music video and have put the cover for the comic on my website too. I'm also doing lots of work for music videos and will try to by September to post a newly edited Motion Graphics Reel to show the new work I have done. The new work is great because I get to do new things but its hard finding freelancing work too. The pay is alright for some and great for others and hopefully in the future I will get more clients and more work from the ones I'm working with now. Either way its really great stuff I'm working on and I'm using my education and degree to really get into the field then working at 8 to 5 job at McDonalds, right? Well see though...

Sketch book 05/07/10

Hey Everyone,

So I know I have been posting some new stuff but I have not been posting any sketchbook pages and I have done some new stuff a couple months ago. I have also been in a slump with sketch book work and how I draw too. Lately when I draw I do not see anything I do as being good, then I look at other peoples blogs and sketchbook work and tell myself, "why isn't my stuff looking like that?".

Then it hit me: I don't draw like that and I don't have to copy how people draw. I look at how people draw certain things and feel thats how my stuff should look like. I see how people use all these different kinds of mediums and think....hey! I could do something like that haha. So what I get from other peoples work is the type of materials they use. I really like using markers and color pencils, I'm going to try to use some watercolors in my work, and do more hatching with my shading with pencil or marker.

Here is what I have to show and hope you all enjoy. I also really want to get some good work out there to make a physical portfolio to have cause I don't have one and feel I need much better work to put in there. Wish me luck in making some new and cool stuff and hope to see everyone else's stuff on their blogs.
