    Made in March 2024

    My first project of 2024 was a human body mechanics animation exercise. This animation was based on the YouTube video Whose Heist Is It Anyway? from Michelle Khare.

    I animated this project in Maya, rendered it with Arnold and edited it in Da Vinci Resolve.

    I used the Alpha rig from Agora Community

  • Leopard Jump

    To improve my understanding in animal behavior, I made this jumping animation of a leopard doing a backflip. I focused especially on getting the timing and weight right to make this look as realistic as possible.
