First Maya Model: Tangled Boat

The assignment for our first Maya model was to build a boat, and I instantly thought of the gondola in Tangled. I am enjoying Maya so far and keep learning new things.

The bench looks crooked from the third view, but I looked at on the top view in Maya and it looks straight.

Paper Spirits Title

The animation for the USC and Tokyo University of Technology collaboration which I storyboarded and designed characters for is finished! It's very cool to see your boards moving.
My sister helped me do a really quick title for the film between essays. I gave her my idea and a bad scribble, she planned and drew it nicely, and I inked it and colored it and then repositioned it for better composition.

Are you Ready Storyboards

Second boarding assignment for Story Art Development. Got some good feedback about staging and some class mates suggested that I add or change a shot to allow for an establishing shot of the interior of the apartment.
Someone also suggested to make it a joke at the end, in which they actually went to a costume party and hear about the crime.

Undercover Dog Storyboards

The first assignment for Story Art Development. The assignments alternate between storyboards and treatments. This one was script based. Apparently Undercover Dog was a WB webseries pilot that didn't do well (not surprising). I think if a few of my classmates and I combined our boards it could actually be pretty funny.
This is my third storyboarding project and I learn a little bit more each time from my mistakes!
