2hundred000

I have tons of new work, no jokes. It is all unfinished. I feel like I am neglecting the blog, though. The shown image is the album cover to the next mixtape. Expect rapping, R&B and instrumentals on the next tape. In addition, there is fine art and CG modeling coming in the near future. I assure that I have been very busy, and the product will be evident soon. Much love, peace, harmony, USA.

Sound Affects Art Gallery

Hey everyone! I have a piece going up in the Sound Affects Art Gallery coming up this July 30th from 8pm-2am in Silver Lake. All of the artwork is directly inspired by a piece of music. There will be MP3 players available at each piece, so that the viewer can hear the inspiration song while looking at the piece. It is $10, ages 18+, and there will be four live bands playing throughout the night. It will definitely be amazing, and if you are in LA, you should probably be there and see an example of the fine art things I do, and of course all of the other talent at the show.

Driftwood End Table

Finally finished up my first piece of driftwood furniture, thanks to Aurora for the drill, and Kay and Andrew for the extra hands! Its pretty messy looking, but it does the job (holding a lamp and the contents of my pockets). And it may not look it, but it is about 95% stable on a hardwood floor - perfect on carpet.

Cowboy Western Character Design

Finally finished the character design for the cowboy western! I will start modeling it tomorrow. I know the registration isn't perfect, but I will likely tweak the proportions once I get a rough model - I wanted to see how it looks in CG before I nailed down the proportions.

This is my first real female character design - hope y'all enjoy!

Mixtape!

I'm working on a character design right now for our proposed Western animation. Should have a sketch dump soon for it. In the meantime, here is the link to my side work: http://soundcloud.com/roryriggins/sets/desert-hills-pt-1/

"Never Cold" is my fav.

Job Hunting & Furniture/Beatmaking

Back on the job hunt post-Family Brain Surge! I have a lot more time without that 3 hour round trip commute, so I found a couple micro hobbies to chill out with after a long day of working on my reel and job hunting: building furniture out of driftwood and writing beats. Wrote this while winding down last night. No, your TV isn't broken, this movie clip is just audio. Enjoy! Now about those taxes...

Website!

I now have an official website! It has all the essentials on it. Thanks to Anthony Nomorosa for the web design!
