Modeling a human head and body in Maya

I haven't quite decided yet which area I want to specialize but I am really excited by CG animation, I am getting used to using Maya more now as I have been practicing a little with the modeling.

If I decide to specialize in CG animation I need to practice a great deal before I can reach the standard of a professional CG animator. I liked the style of the last scene of my motion graphics animation- 'The black hole' as I love using mixed media, I want to re-create the scene in 3D so that I can see the different potentials for both 3D and 2D. This will also give me practice of texture mapping an object.

animation- new media



This is an animation that I created for a new media project. The idea was to create a short animation to promote the CITV website. I decided to use the famous hair and tortoise story to create my animation as children love animals and both children and parents will relate to it. As it was Easter at the time I used this in my animation by using an Easter egg allowing the children to have a little 'spot the egg' game at the same time as watching the animation. I was quite pleased with the out come as this was my first attempt at using Toonboom.

Black Hole



This is my animation for the motion graphics project, unfortunately the quality has not turned out very well as I had to compress the file and alter the size.
