An Insurance Hero in Texas

Good Day Everyone!

The third Dillo Insurance spot that Janimation completed really pushed the envelope on the cartoony realism! 2 new amazing environments and a new character for the Dillo to  *briefly* interact with!





These spots are always so much fun to perfect the timing and spacing from both an animation standpoint and a layout/animatic perspective!

More projects coming soon!

TTFN Everybody!

Happy Holidays! 2012 Card

Hope everyone had a great holiday season and a very happy new year!

This year I again designed and printed custom cards, but ran out far too quickly again!

I present my LolCatz Card:



Also, a number of animation projects have been released on the web! Here's one done at Janimation for United Way!



I also helped clean up motion capture with animation intern Andy Green when id Software worked with Janimation to release the Doom 3 BFG edition! I hope to get some videos from that up very soon!

Shakespeare and Elephants

Hello everyone!

I completed this guy a little while ago. He is the first crochet project that I made for myself. Because I love Shakespeare.

Also, I found one of my animations published online this week. It's posted by the GOP youtube channel, so I imagine it is safe to share with everyone!

Whatever your political views, it was quite fun to animate this guy! Did you know elephants don't walk like most quadrupeds? Turns out (due to their mass I imagine) they spend most of their walk cycle on 3 legs. Thanks again Mr. Muybridge!

Naturesweet- Tim the Tomato

Hello there everybody!

I have officially begun work as a Freelance Animator for Janimation! I couldn't be happier! ^_^

And although I am unable to tell you what I'm currently working on, I will post the past work that I can here!

So far, I can only share this little number I did back when I was an Intern! You might recognize Tim the Tomato from Post magazine where he was featured on the cover in June 2012!



The animation is mine, while it was modeled and rigged by my co-worker Cris Fudge, and textured, lit and rendered by our creative director, Greg Punchatz.

I am also happy to share some sketchbook pages from when I was working on this project! Mostly I was trying to find strong poses or just having fun drawing this guy!

More to come... eventually!

Spanish Conquistador 3D Character


Spanish Conquistador 3D Character from Julia S. Bacak on Vimeo.


A character I modeled and surfaced as a means to train myself in Autodesk Softimage while I was an intern at the wonderful Janimation in Dallas, Texas.

I designed him too! Check out my process!!

The Apartment- Lipsync

Hi kids! ^_^

Did not post for a while as I became very busy with a internship in Dallas at Janimation that just wrapped up. It was amazing.

Anyway, this was a practice lipsync animation to a piece of dialogue from one of my favorite films "The Apartment". It features the voices of the always fabulous Jack Lemmon and Fred MacMurray.

Enjoy!
