Beware of the Lady


Sketch of the day. Just playing with some markers and Photoshop

Flash film


Roll Armadillo Roll ! from Jessica Jaquier on Vimeo.
Flash Film done at Vancouver Film School.
Rolly the armadillo, walks peacefully until he falls into a snake's nest. Rolly's best defense is to get into his armor and roll !


Here it is, my flash film I did at Vancouver Film School! Also my first try in Flash. Didn’t like it a lot at the beginning but once you get familiarized with it is much easier. Enjoy!

From sketch to final product!

A Day in the Sky


A Day InThe Sky from Jessica Jaquier on Vimeo.
How it would be to live in the sky? For Lulubel, taking care of her cloud sheep is no big deal, but when a storm cloud appears, only means danger for them.

So, this is my first classical animated short, done by hand, tons of pencils erasers and paper, painting and  compositing in Toonboom, edited in After Effects. Backgrounds were done in Photoshop. Hope you all like it!

Lulubel sketches



   Some Lulubel Sketches

Some sketches of  my shepherd girl, my character from my short film A Day in the Sky. She was the most enjoyable character to draw of the sheep and the wolf, but the most difficult to animate and cleaning up. This are my tries of finding her hair color, after that i could decide the rest of the palette. In the end i was convinced and chose the pink one!

A Day in the Sky - Character designs





My characters, I designed for my film, A Day in the Sky at Vancouver Film School. During the process of roughing and clean up, they've been modified a little bit, but always trying to get attached to the original design.
