Monsters (the music video)


So this was one of my FIRST projects I kind of worked on during school for a music video. These are designs of various monsters that help this kid out in the music video to not be scared of the dark, or something along those lines...

Anyway, here is a link if you guys have never seen it before:

An Oldie but a Goodie


I'm going to attempt to post one new or old piece of art or even sketches I have done at least once a week. So what I have hear is something old but still pretty good! This is actually on my online portfolio where I have a lot more animation stuff that I don't post on here that much but I decided to slap this on the blog for easier access.

These are just a couple of character design studies for some characters in my story "The Boonies" and then the snow-boy expressions are for something else that is still up in the air. I did the snow-boy all with markers and colored pencils and the bottom characters were all done in photoshop. Enjoy and look back next week or even this weekend for some more antastic artwork!

The Dead!


Yeah thats right....two post in one week and its actually something new! So if you all remember I have been doing concept for my animated short/comic book/art-something project called "The Boonies". I am now in the stages of drawing out the three main zombies that Greg and Jessica encounter in interact with the most. The first one is "The Dead in the Suit". This guy has gone through MANY designs and I think my reasoning for choosing this on as its final process is because it shows the dead in their last stages of their undead life.

So what I have here is a little illustration to share with you all that took me about 2 hours to finish off on the computer and about weeks to concept haha. Enjoy!

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.

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...

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!

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!
