That Time I Took a Pill
This was a group animation project done in one of my advanced classes. In this short, I worked on some of the set dressing and texturing, along with pieces of the final animating.
The Alien
Here is a character animation done from scratch. The alien character was all modeled, rigged, and textured by me. Then was put into a simple animation about his love for earth.
The Claw
For this I was given a provided rigged character and we were to animate them to a dialogue. I used a clip from Toy Story because I thought this character looked very alien-like.
Walk Cycle
This was a great assignment for understanding some of the key elements when animating in Maya. It helped for me to learn balance and to think about placement and character even more.
Hula
For this I was provided with a rigged character, but had to model our own prop, and to animate the character interacting with it. Using Maya, I had to watch reference videos to make sure to position the body in the character stances while the character is hula hooping.
3D Modeling
In my experience, I have been challenged to model several different things. The first being an appliance, mine being a microwave (top left), later I created a face and textured it with paint (top middle). For one of the last projects I created a fish with a "demo video" (left) and following that I created my own aquatic animal (top right).
