2006 Showreel

The fruit of two years of study in advanced 3D animation. I know what you're thinking: "Isn't she wearing scandalously little?" Well, the character in question was supposed to be the core of a short film about a society where everyone can fly, but she cannot. A flight-based society will, of course, place incredible emphasis on weight and aerodynamic drag. The film never got finished, but the costumes remained.

My intern team at Huhu Studios produced this show for You And Media in 2007. Most of my duties were special effects: sparkles, sunflower screens, splashes and dog drool. However, as our team was small I wound up involved in just about every step of the process, so practically every shot was touched by a dozen hands before it was done.
