3D Rough Mechanical Pencil

Here just some of the screen capture of the 3D mechanical pencil im currently working on. It still need a lot of works still :D

Jet/Mechancial StoryBoard-------Breakdown Shot List

Here are the breakdown shot for the Jet/Mechanical Pencil story.

Adidas Commercial

Here is a video provided by my brother, eddy, who found this pretty cool commercial of Adidas. Pretty much the similar idea of having the inside out of the mechanical pencil, but just make it a bit more complicate than it is. Here is the Link

Sounds.....Its All About Sounds

Here are some of the sounds research that i will be use in the jet commercial
Aircraft cut through water
Aircraft inter rumble
Aircraft Landing
Aircraft Ambience
Metal Sounds
Metal Rattle
Metal Sqeak

Adding On the Cool Design of Pen

Here is a link provided by fellow friend/classmate, Catherine Alupun, a article from OhGizmo, very cool and huge pen check it out.

Some Nice Pen/Pencil design

Here are some pretty nice design pen/pencil. they all looks so pretty and nice

3D Jet Model/Reference

So moving on from the storyboard i start building the 3D model of jet. Here are some of the reference i found online and some quick screen capture from Maya....








-still have a lot of work need to be done on the model. We will see how that develop thru time

Saab Inspiration Commercial

Here are a list of Saab commercial i found very interesting and cool. My commercial might be possible to be similar to the style of it.

One of pretty popular Saab commercial that been air on the TV

Here is a making of for the commercial.

The following 2 is just some ideas of making a commercial. The design of the car is very nice and cool, the new Saab Aero

Thumbnail Storyboarding

Here are some of the thumbnail storyboard that i been working on for past couple weeks. Some of them are more about the products itself. Some of them is having a character inside the products itself. And some of them are glorying the products. As far right now, after going through each individual story with Anezka, it came across the fighter jet one and the transforming one is the most reasonable animation.







This is the jet one that i will be more focus on. Later on i will be working on the breakdown shot of animation and a rough 3D model. I will keep posting up more stuff later. 3D model cover with a very nice detail fighter jet and the mechanical pencil.



This one is originally design to show the transformation of an old hand to an robotic hand. Hinting robotic hand is strong, fast, and never get tired. However after a correction with Anezka, now the idea is slightly change. Instead of an robotic hand it will now transforming into an young hand.

Some More Research On The Mechanical Pencil #3

So i went on with more research on the pen/pencil and i came across some of result here.....as well have to thanks on my brother, Eddie, help me on the research....

Here is one of interesting link to one of blog regarding about this digital Korean pen which allow you to able to wireless control with connection of USB


Lamy is another company i came across with interesting different type of mechanical pencil. They are very heavy on the simple design with pen/pencil. Nice and sleek look in their products

Some More Research On The Mechanical Pencil #2

So while i was researching on mechanical pencil on Japanese Pentel & Pilot website i came across a lot of really cool design of mechanical pencil and pen. I took my chance to visit a Japanese stationary see if i can get some of these pencils. And they did have the it !!!!!!

i was in the store about 30 mins, and i came across these treassure >o<

First off is the ERGoNoMix WingGrip Mechanical Pencil


The cool part of this pencil is the newly grip design...the 4th point system.



At the end, it's a very comfortable pencil and easy to write with


Second off we have the Dr. Grip Series mechanical pencil

The pencil grip design is very comfortable to use. As well the shake design to get the lead out is making the use of pencil is so much easier


Third off is a B's pencil/pen, this type of pencil contain both a mechanical pencil and a pen. The user have the ability of switch around depend on which type of pen or pencil they want to use.



You need to turn the top around to switch around the pencil
