recently i updated my web page with a fragment of a series of studies, in this case the goal was to make a similar rig system used for the cg character davy jones for its tentacles beard , made with “home technology” and maintaining the quality of a film project . from the model to the final animation of this segment of research can be found here (click on the image) 
I decided to start a new personal project , its an animated short. but not the average type of shorts. This one is a Edward Gorey style plot, and a Tim Burton style animation. i always loved the black humor and always wanted to make something like that in the medium of animation, now i think i have the right tools and knowledge to pull it off. soon I will be having a section on my website to show the development of this project , meanwhile you can check this shots from the production.
Here is my latest work, some riggings. i set up this differents kinds of rigs for use them on a producction we are working on. everything is done inside 3dsmax . this are realtimeanimations, i didnt use any simulation system nor reactor, only max standard bone system and a lot of setups.
