I gave myself the goal of starting work on one of my personal projects during that time. I had a couple ideas, but I decided to focus on a retelling of the Billy Goats Gruff tale. I looooove it when fairy tales get kinda dark and creepy, and Billy Goats Gruff has that potential. I've been focusing most of my energy so far on the troll and the bridge, the creepy part. I posted some troll drawings a couple of years ago on this blog. I was pretty happy with the design at the time, so I tried to take what I did then and elaborate on it a little bit. Mostly I just added a body. I got pretty stuck on what his body should look like. I knew I wanted long spidery arms, and little back legs, but I couldn't get the right body shape to tie it all together. What really helped me was to think about how he would move. Then a body shape just kind of popped out! <br /><br />Anyways the story and the characters have a long way to go, but I think the troll is headed in the right direction. Hopefully next time I'll have some bridge/setting type art. Or maybe some storyboards!<br /><br />Thanks for looking! Sorry I'm a terrible blogger!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKEZ_-alhEw7vTD0suiUfe33BS_nLKoeJNd5wvswlqWmSmJCK3hjMV5YtEXsNO5dosUHzealmXC__D58xRuHNp8YcjJcsELghAIrN-InUPEOmhNb7wc73A-X2snrEC-hc6fTU5/s1600-h/troll01.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 222px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKEZ_-alhEw7vTD0suiUfe33BS_nLKoeJNd5wvswlqWmSmJCK3hjMV5YtEXsNO5dosUHzealmXC__D58xRuHNp8YcjJcsELghAIrN-InUPEOmhNb7wc73A-X2snrEC-hc6fTU5/s320/troll01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353399463581542050" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEib1L3q5ApVQN03SoEPPwxSDUf0ExtEexNOFrh69GeoQJ5cJh02YW3RQIbqH4P1qlnTBJhfgW49S62n-RoAcNjQf3Tiz8xJi8fa83h4NH-QB5emf6iz4WawWx2p0RlILBfPfK0r/s1600-h/troll04.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 309px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEib1L3q5ApVQN03SoEPPwxSDUf0ExtEexNOFrh69GeoQJ5cJh02YW3RQIbqH4P1qlnTBJhfgW49S62n-RoAcNjQf3Tiz8xJi8fa83h4NH-QB5emf6iz4WawWx2p0RlILBfPfK0r/s320/troll04.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353399688643693090" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwFFf4nXPkmWE2xVd9JEDC8h0Rbxs4Goj4J7SCpim1ME1LBBCAhZxaarUnnxSbTSzudBu6RNuA1hgZnKxB0IXAQ1S40ttdCEkxjueEJUnX82Pkq5KIXvwnrSdtLhivq2hHA8vq/s1600-h/troll03.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 188px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwFFf4nXPkmWE2xVd9JEDC8h0Rbxs4Goj4J7SCpim1ME1LBBCAhZxaarUnnxSbTSzudBu6RNuA1hgZnKxB0IXAQ1S40ttdCEkxjueEJUnX82Pkq5KIXvwnrSdtLhivq2hHA8vq/s320/troll03.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353399686824874642" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgitkbC4IaS2f8jyTBpUTPA01At79MUq3LTieqyZ-XM63krFuWRXK1L929uwAmLioSTM6TbxWWhS-O2KrEU7DpENDRzG2AUwyfsGCDIvXWU_u0I49-DDR-3wsO-H5id3FjJoedN/s1600-h/troll02.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgitkbC4IaS2f8jyTBpUTPA01At79MUq3LTieqyZ-XM63krFuWRXK1L929uwAmLioSTM6TbxWWhS-O2KrEU7DpENDRzG2AUwyfsGCDIvXWU_u0I49-DDR-3wsO-H5id3FjJoedN/s320/troll02.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353399682343714658" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com31tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-25585290583172131032008-04-19T00:36:00.000-07:002008-04-19T00:44:46.819-07:00Gmork?Yeah its been a while. I know. That's pretty much how I start all my posts. Anyways for the two people still checking this blog here's a new post!! I've been drawing Neverending Story characters lately of all things. There are such cool looking characters in that movie. I love it! I drew some luck dragons and the Gmork, but I left my sketchbook at work, so I doodled some Gmorks on my brand new 12inch CINTIQ! It was pretty fun. And here they are!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb1N8Bve-MoFI1KXkSSobQ-u8Segv_HWhNlPszqydI3ZhOB69BOT5F6iQ1tDw4P1ehr01FXaSpyiVNWa-w-JwKdmeI5NhogQBw_Oh8LaZbCe8u0HU2pcSf1qmTOg6vlJL-Db6i/s1600-h/mork.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhb1N8Bve-MoFI1KXkSSobQ-u8Segv_HWhNlPszqydI3ZhOB69BOT5F6iQ1tDw4P1ehr01FXaSpyiVNWa-w-JwKdmeI5NhogQBw_Oh8LaZbCe8u0HU2pcSf1qmTOg6vlJL-Db6i/s320/mork.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5190858870615554178" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com35tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-66437800393939209642007-12-23T21:27:00.000-08:002007-12-23T21:41:43.889-08:00I made a Christmas picture!So I've been watching all these Christmas movies and listening to all this Christmas music, and I just wanted to make something ....Christmasy! I started drawing Reindeer after watching this reindeer documentary on Discovery this morning. Then I had this idea that I wanted to draw an old reindeer, because they're so droopy and shaggy looking. Then I thought, what if the old reindeer was an old retired Rudolph and he was telling his story to the little deers. Kinda cute! I liked the idea so I tried to draw it. I wish I could have spent more time on this, but Christmas is on Tuesday and I'm pretty much booked with stuff to do until then. Not to mention my art supplies consist of a ballpoint pen and photoshop with a laptop TOUCHPAD. Sorry if my coloring looks like a drunken baby did it. Anyways! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays and all that!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRFEat0XlhEgxQ2Z5NiN_WPdE9K6BQV1GzrjcnyUV-mlAomjomJQoW37G5FtprNfjvwW7OgPoLugHnYg-aidMjsJTCZRn-27txBB3TG1CzG8sDfqgElnivZ9g0FTSrek0QaocL/s1600-h/reindeer.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRFEat0XlhEgxQ2Z5NiN_WPdE9K6BQV1GzrjcnyUV-mlAomjomJQoW37G5FtprNfjvwW7OgPoLugHnYg-aidMjsJTCZRn-27txBB3TG1CzG8sDfqgElnivZ9g0FTSrek0QaocL/s320/reindeer.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5147409944837576514" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-50758597780479966962007-09-26T08:19:00.001-07:002007-09-26T08:28:18.555-07:00Sky BoundHey you all everybody! <br /><br />Well I finally finished the "Sky Bound" film stuff for my portfolio. I kinda got stuck on it for a month, but now its DONE. I put in two sections from the film's boards and did some little storybook vignette things to go with them. Here's the last three I did.

This is the title image I did for my third year film, "Lights Out". Thanks to <a href="http://beetlebeauty.blogspot.com/">Minkyu</a> for convincing me to color it. It looks more interesting and fits the mood of the film better. :) I'm trying to do title images that encapsulate the conflicts of each of my films. I'm having fun with all this porfolio stuff.

(In fake drawing land.)Well I've finished my first portfolio assignment to myself. I created a series of vignettes with my stuffed puppy character and myself on a road trip around the USA. I've been on a lot of road trips pretty much ALL over the place, so I thought it was a good topic. A few of them were based on real life events, but I guess not in any of the ones I'm posting here. At first I was trying to base all of them on real events in some way or another, but fantasy world road trip seemed more interesting in some cases. <br /><br />Now I'm ramping up for my second assignment, which is to board a segment from my Billy Goat's Gruff story. I don't really have it all worked out yet, so its proving a challenge to get started. Not to mention I just bought Zelda: Twilight Princess. I wasn't supposed to get it until I finished my portfolio, but I had this gift certificate that was going to expire. Now its all up to will power. Must..finish....portfolio!! <br /><br />Ok so here's four of the dozen or so vignettes I did. The first two images are going to be the bookend pictures to the rest. The rest are done as polaroids. That's sure was a weird aspect ratio for me. I just can't think of compositions vertically like that. So anyways here's two of the polaroids. <br /><br />Ok until next time!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFHhSMl_9m3A5J1H-cPgWqp5cLMnrY8iFHlxIQLnlntxcN_qC7ZKCkvfrl3yDUvqOXDU7TqLwbcIjTa9Nex5BeNiHgLNcB2qslBC70JIJ2APN7l_Bo5ecRpyG0mk6VVDo0IIYF/s1600-h/here_we_go.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFHhSMl_9m3A5J1H-cPgWqp5cLMnrY8iFHlxIQLnlntxcN_qC7ZKCkvfrl3yDUvqOXDU7TqLwbcIjTa9Nex5BeNiHgLNcB2qslBC70JIJ2APN7l_Bo5ecRpyG0mk6VVDo0IIYF/s320/here_we_go.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100521437434489554" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLPi0MLlyjTJccpihnFymrgxSNDziP8FSewsIfWUrDtZXUaX0VSbk0NIXRdUMOUlmT1_GbdaTd_A8C049NG3Bvy5iGfpNjfgtl8okxDh1yspvIWTmHHGErYZq-qDYfwKzXfpgd/s1600-h/nightsky.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLPi0MLlyjTJccpihnFymrgxSNDziP8FSewsIfWUrDtZXUaX0VSbk0NIXRdUMOUlmT1_GbdaTd_A8C049NG3Bvy5iGfpNjfgtl8okxDh1yspvIWTmHHGErYZq-qDYfwKzXfpgd/s320/nightsky.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100521437434489570" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhveTGYHtw4oXM3JNbJkyGaXOFmopRcAGdhgeLt8x9VKgMdF_xXwbd5RukK1zP7NuRdDya-vC1HMYz6Df4I2LqywS-tmJ6YT0_BO65_xGjbguZJFnexHxncZfBDiLKT58lux5aO/s1600-h/neworleans.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhveTGYHtw4oXM3JNbJkyGaXOFmopRcAGdhgeLt8x9VKgMdF_xXwbd5RukK1zP7NuRdDya-vC1HMYz6Df4I2LqywS-tmJ6YT0_BO65_xGjbguZJFnexHxncZfBDiLKT58lux5aO/s320/neworleans.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100521441729456882" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrLL6g5jlG9Mafl4KI0gQS_4kFB4tn_3Fn-DKhrIxriKD3GDRfISEIvEQpFNah174kZW21D_TwcmSFV1cqqdaPB_MQSUrH-No8VPP1iW4uWzTxSY8A2BOzQobd4MJZx1J9Pbbx/s1600-h/washingtonDC.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrLL6g5jlG9Mafl4KI0gQS_4kFB4tn_3Fn-DKhrIxriKD3GDRfISEIvEQpFNah174kZW21D_TwcmSFV1cqqdaPB_MQSUrH-No8VPP1iW4uWzTxSY8A2BOzQobd4MJZx1J9Pbbx/s320/washingtonDC.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100521441729456898" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-58506351682699806742007-07-11T20:30:00.000-07:002007-07-11T20:59:42.124-07:00A Racconcert (and a dog named Rogue)Hey everyone! As promised....an update. The last few months have left little time for art. This summer I plan to change that. I've got to do a massive amount of art in the next few months. Gotta improve and get a kick ass portfolio going on. I doodle tons of crap at work all day, but most of it is crap...or griffins. (Seriously I draw so many griffins its ridiculous.) I've been trying to branch out and do other things. Anyways these drawings came out of that. <br /><br />Here's a bunch of raccoons rocking out. I was listening to the O Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack and I started seeing raccoons playing banjos, then it turned into a whole band. I drew the dude with the bass(or is it base? alas dictionary.com you are so few clicks away, but, alas, I am also lazy.) and I tried to draw his hand on the frets, but it wouldn't really reach, so I starting wondering how a tiny raccoon would actually play that thing. I realized he needed a friend to sit up there and hold the notes while he plucked the strings. Ah ha! anyways...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_-S9JOy8hAGoLkRT3BmwuZXmrFS9ktOIBUODtKsBPgd89xWWnxDDdnQ_lTzz2oZTeE7hbxdkCwLh05r_jXcx5V_9u2jZNSOr_s1X9KU4BqU0TObenq9r4Yk7UG787Y-INr3ZM/s1600-h/raccoonband_sm.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_-S9JOy8hAGoLkRT3BmwuZXmrFS9ktOIBUODtKsBPgd89xWWnxDDdnQ_lTzz2oZTeE7hbxdkCwLh05r_jXcx5V_9u2jZNSOr_s1X9KU4BqU0TObenq9r4Yk7UG787Y-INr3ZM/s320/raccoonband_sm.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5086150991919040498" /></a><br />And then I also doodled my friend Heidi's doberman, Rogue.

Here goes!<br /><br />I've got these two cats, Squash and Stretch. I love those little guys, even though at times they can be huge obnoxious turds. For instance, today, upon returning to my apartment I discover Stretch has blasted his way though my velcro cabinet defenses to pilfer the huge bag of cat food hidden within. *shakes head* <br /><br />If these cats were filmmakers Squash would be Ron Howard, sweet, sentimental (Cinderella Man) and at times stupid(The Grinch Who Stole Christmas), and Stretch would be Michael Bay(Armageddon). Squash wanders around making this adorable chirping noise looking for love and food. He gets into trouble by accident and he never understands. Stretch on the other hand is actually in search of badness. Everything on the counter must be knocked on the floor, and if its on the floor it must be ripped to pieces. Upon yelling at him he will immediately tear off around the apartment making this frustrated gurgle noise looking for something else to rip up and destroy.<br /><br />Anyways that's probably enough cat talk. The real point of this post is this drawing I did of the two cats. I've been trying to caricature them for a while now, and this one felt pretty good. Squash is the cute orange one and Stretch is the long-faced gray one.<br /><br />Ok until next time!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc0mf1QsRXPJ3iZttMang4G_0-aSCbvETzSAFR2-sg6FSJyNHHHaJs8n4eFZX0VYxx8wU1TY3FiGog4CeX55iWsjQfEUjCpd2oS9bZNa2wY_yyVg5JVY9_d1jAUQxPJ11ddVTk/s1600-h/cats.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc0mf1QsRXPJ3iZttMang4G_0-aSCbvETzSAFR2-sg6FSJyNHHHaJs8n4eFZX0VYxx8wU1TY3FiGog4CeX55iWsjQfEUjCpd2oS9bZNa2wY_yyVg5JVY9_d1jAUQxPJ11ddVTk/s320/cats.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5037263572996662498" border="0" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com24tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1168324207552732252007-01-08T21:53:00.000-08:002007-01-08T22:30:07.573-08:00Pitter Pitter Patter, Here's a Lion and a RatHey folks. Well the new year has begun. I have a lot of goals this year, and one of them is to do more artwork and hopefully update this blog more often. Woo!<br /><br />SOoooooo it happened. I'm obsessed with Lost. My roommates and I have been watching the first season for a week now and I am just totally "lost" in Lost. (Do you see what I did right there? Blows your mind doesn't it?) Michael Giacchino's music is pretty sweet too. I'm going to order the soundtrack methinks. <br /><br />So yeah I drew this random picture. I started with the lion and then he was looking at a rat, and then I thought, "Man, rats are pretty cool!", and I drew a rat. <br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/1600/933960/lion.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/320/369493/lion.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/1600/845058/rat.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/320/174963/rat.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1167153439794733462006-12-26T07:32:00.000-08:002006-12-26T09:20:01.356-08:00Jen of the Caribbean!<a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/1600/801571/jencaribbean.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/320/862388/jencaribbean.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Hello everyone! I'm back from my winter cruise adventure! It was a pretty good time, but its nice to be back on dry land. Being on a cruise ship almost feels like being in a huge human zoo. You sit in your little cabin most of the day waiting for food, and they have a little water pool and places to layout and sun yourself, but mostly your day is spent waiting around for food. And man the food. You can eat 24 hours a day if you want, so you end up spending a lot of time just trying to be hungry for the next meal. <br /><br />Anyways yeah, the boat was boring, but the nature was flipping sweet. The water! The cloudforms! The beaches! Ahh! Amazing! You'd think with all this inspiration I would have drawn something right? Wrong. I have drawn nothing. My sister even drew more then I did! <a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/1600/343287/amydrawing.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/320/555247/amydrawing.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> (I'll have you know *I* wrote Merry Christmas.)<br /><br />Also I'm reading the History of Brittain for Dummies. I'm up to like King Henry III, around the 1200s I think. History is pretty much a huge mess, but its been fascinating me a lot recently. My goal is to read more nations' historys until I'm the smartest dummy around. My sister even gave me her anthropology book! Yeah!<br /><br />Ok I have to go do exciting things now like buy milk at the grocery store.

Well sort of I guess. The two just kind of coincided! I was going to update last night, but I broke the backspace key on my keyboard and spent a whole hour trying to fix it. Its really due to a kitten's ass that I got into the mess in the first place, but it was my own foolishness that broke the key. Now backspace is kind of just hanging there, dangling from one side and when I press it, it sort of sticks to my fingers, pulls up and doesn't register. *shakes head* It is the burden I must bear I suppose. <br /><br />Anyways I drew these at work after being inspired by miss <a href="http://heidigilbert.blogspot.com/">Heidi Jo Gilbert.</a> They were pretty fun! My favorite part was trying to design the fur patterns and make it feel German Shepherdy. I think the one on the right has the right idea. I like the neck the most. The face is a little weird though. But yeah anyways...here it is!<br /><br />Also Fried Green Tomatoes is one of the saddest movies I can remember seeing. Not that it even ends sad! It just has these sad parts that....wow....they just make me cry. I cried during the movie and then afterwards when I started thinking about it again! Yeah...ok....now I guess you all know how much of a soggy-faced girl I really am. <br /><br />OK.....German Shepherds! Thanksgiving! Food.....prep...eration......<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/1600/902475/germanshepherd.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger/733/3027/320/176563/germanshepherd.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1164091694872111102006-11-20T22:31:00.002-08:002006-11-20T22:48:14.873-08:00Old Story IdeaThis was an old story idea I had my third year at school. I originally had huge epic plans to do a fourth year film in cg with these characters, but then griffins and other such things filled my thoughts. (Not to mention CG films are a lot of work!!) So it fell by the wayside. I think about it a lot though and I'd really like to make the film someday. Its kind of this bittersweet thing with this hermit alien guy and this little firefly that becomes his friend. I guess it sounds like boring cheese when I put it that way, but there's more to it then that! I'll probably be doing a bunch of art for it cause I'm thinking about trying to board it. Its going to be a glacially slow project, cause I don't have much free time, but I will try! <br /><br />Anyways, here's a picture. I colored it on the Cintiq. I'm not sure about the background. It was a lot of playing around. Ok so here it is! I have a few more sketches but I haven't colored them yet! More to come!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/alien02.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/alien02.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />Oh and speaking of bittersweet things!

I'm actually working on shots for a real movie now guys!! I'm totally excited!! Hopefully I can learn fast and work hard so I can stay on the show. I really hope they like what I'm doing. <br /><br />Anyways! I'm hoping to post more doodles, and not worry so much about making clean finished drawings.(not that you can tell I was worrying about that with my other scribbly posts to this blog! :P!) I couldn't help scribbling in a little tone in Photoshop on this one. So yep! Here's an elephant! <br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/elephant.1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/elephant.1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1161068489809220612006-10-16T23:32:00.000-07:002006-10-17T00:01:29.823-07:00Cats!About a month ago my roommates and I acquired two crazy babies....KITTENS! And being the animation nerds we are, we named them Squash and Stretch. <br /><br />This is Squash:<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/cats_squash.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/cats_squash.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />And this is Stretch:<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/cats_stretch.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/cats_stretch.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br />The picture is ripe for some kind of "cat out of the bag" play on words.

I don't normally stay up past Conan O'Brien, who is one of my personal heros, and its for good reason. First of all I'd be really really tired for work in the morning, and more importantly "Last Call with Carson Daly" is one of the worst programs I've ever seen, but there's nothing else but infomercials on that late on basic cable. It's physically painful to watch. Nothing is funny and everyone is trying so hard and failing entirely. Also apparently they have to pay the audience 7 dollars an hour to sit through it. *shakes head*<br /><br />Anyways...I hadn't drawn dinosaurs in a while, so I did. Dinosaurs are so cool. I watercolored it in front of the lodge at Calarts today. It was really peaceful. There's nothing more calming then doing watercolors in a nice place. I've got to make a habit out of it. <br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/dinosaurs.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/dinosaurs.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1156310773736224152006-08-22T21:49:00.000-07:002006-08-22T22:26:13.786-07:00Goats!There were a few days this summer where I went to this local park/ranch/farm thing down the street to draw the goats. I'm trying to do research for my Billy Goat's Gruff project, which hasn't gotten much attention as of late. I've been animating like crazy, and staying late every day at work. Gah! I'm learning a lot though, so that good. Anyways I really enjoyed watching the goats and drawing them. It was pretty peaceful and I'm sure I'll go back for more. Not to mention animals are just awesome, and goats have really strange heads. They need studying! <br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/goats02..jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/goats02..jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/goats01.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/goats01.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1155959163760793612006-08-18T20:31:00.000-07:002006-08-18T20:46:03.770-07:00Santa Clarita! So glad to meetcha!Wow, well sorry for abandoning this blog for so long. I've been working hard on my animation tests at work, and at the end of the day it leaves me with little will to do anything else, much less anything on the computer. The blog is taking the hit big time. I have some artwork, but I'm too lazy to get out the scanner. Maybe tomorrow.<br /><br />Anyways...yeah....here's the lamest update of all time...<br /><br />Every evening I drive 45 minutes through a bunch of annoying traffic to get back to Santa Clarita, and I hate it every day, but right at the end of my journey I come around this bend and there's always the most beautiful mountainous vista sunset waiting for me. The last 5 minutes of my drive is usually pretty beautiful! So anyways, I took a few pictures last week. Heeeere ya go!<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/sc_sunset.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/sc_sunset.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/sc_sunset2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/sc_sunset2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/sc_sunset3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/sc_sunset3.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1152775018070272592006-07-12T23:40:00.000-07:002006-07-13T13:18:20.820-07:00Arrrrrt and Also Arrrrrrrrgggghhhh......Hey everybody!! Well I saw Pirate's of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest!<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/jollyroger.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/jollyroger.jpg" border="0" /></a></p>Yep! That pretty much sums it up!<br /><br />And also I've got some art. I drew these two baby griffin pictures a couple months ago and I thought they were cute, so I scanned them and colored them on the Cintiq. I think the first one worked out better. Then the third picture is just a griffin sketch from a month back. My roommate Nick left his red colerase sitting out and I was playing with it. It made me feel like I was drawing real professional animation drawings. Oooooo! (Mostly just cause it was a color other then gray.) This is the last of my old artwork too. Now I have to draw new stuff! I'll try not to draw so many griffins. I need to expand! Hopefully I can find some time and motivation. I've got some ideas for some goat characters I'm working on. I think they'll be fun to design, but ....yeah... no time right now!<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/girlgrif01.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/girlgrif01.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/girlgrif02.1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/girlgrif02.1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/griffinred.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/griffinred.jpg" border="0" /></a></p>Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28557249.post-1152151212840868092006-07-05T18:35:00.000-07:002006-07-05T19:05:25.536-07:00ARRRR!Well Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest comes out in two days. I really hope its good. I'm so tired of being disappointed. I go back and forth between complete confidence of its awesomeness and a cautious worry that "Hollywood" has screwed up yet another really REALLY fun film series. *sigh* I will just have to wait and see. Regardless of how it turns out though, I'm still excited right now! I have random pictures for you people!<br /><br />First of all I hate Superman Returns. A lot. Bryan Singer left X3 to rot for this piece of garbage?! Pffft! I'm really looking forward to watching Pirates II blow it out of the water this weekend at the box office. Yeah! I made this image to express my emotions:<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/plank.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/plank.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />I wanted to do picture of Superman actually being blasted out of the sky by the Black Pearl, but such a picture was not to be found, so I had to settle for this instead. Maybe this is more..... tasteful? Eh?<br /><br />And also, (and this is less stupid) last summer I went down to San Diego with some of the other Dreamworks story trainees and on the way down we spotted this on the 5 freeway:<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/pirateshighway01.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/pirateshighway01.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Upon closer inspection it seemed to be some kind of morbid movie prop. Here's a high-res photo for you:<br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/pirateshighway02.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/pirateshighway02.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />One year later I see the trailer for Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and what do I see?! The same morbid movie prop!!! So awesome!!! It's totally the same thing, check it out! <br /><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/piratesball01.0.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/piratesball01.0.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/piratesball02.0.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/piratesball02.0.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/1600/piratesball03.0.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/733/3027/320/piratesball03.0.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />Every once in a while its pretty awesome to live in L.A. (And by "in", I mean "near", because I don't actually live there. I'm Jennifer Hager and I don't endorse lying.)<br /><br />Ok this was a completely geeky post. I'll have some art in the next one!Jennifer Hagerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05259744667033090425noreply@blogger.com4
