North By Northwest - Dialogue Shot At the time, I was really getting into the roots of Maya and pushing myself to learn as much as I could. I hit a bit of a creative block, so I looked back at some classic films for inspiration and found a dialogue segment in North by Northwest that sparked this idea. This shot took around 4 weeks, and it was the first dialogue shot with which I made lots of progress as an Animator. - - - #northbynorthwest #film #animationart #autodeskmaya #3danimation #aftereffects #cgacohort #premierepro #characteranimation

Link and Zelda Dialogue shot This shot was my first attempt at a dialogue piece. I felt the audio, which was from the 11 Second Club current challenge at the time, was perfect for Zelda and Link, and it inspired the idea of them sitting in a tavern having a conversation. This piece was also a huge milestone for me, as it reached 59K views and 2.1K likes on YouTube, the most I’ve ever received on any video! #linkandzelda #legendofzeldafanart #breathofthewild #autodeskmaya #3danimation #aftereffects #cgacohort #premierepro #characteranimation #11secondclub

Little Kitty Big City - agora.community challenge 🐾 While studying quadrupeds at uni, I joined this challenge to animate a cat within a month. The rig was tricky at first, but filming my own cat for reference made a huge difference, especially for the jump onto the car. Reference is key when animating quadrupeds! #Animation #3DAnimation #QuadrupedAnimation #CharacterAnimation #AnimationChallenge #LittleKittyBigCity #AgoraCommunity #3DAnimator #CatAnimation #cgacohort

Back then, I knew little about 3D animation but had plenty of ambition to start learning. This was my first proper shot in Maya. I initially used Arnold to render this project, but ultimately learned how to playblast instead. A small but important first step. - - - - - - #maya #autodeskmaya #3danimation #aftereffects #link #zeldabreathofthewild #animation #3dcharacteranimation #studentwork #characteranimation #animationreel
