So, I’m pretty busy at school these days. I’m working on a 1-minute 3D animation for my Demo Reel Production class. I’m also doing a 20-second 2D animation for my advanced 2D class. After taking 2 traditional animation classes I definitely plan to continue my focus in 3D animation. I have two animated shorts I would like to produce. Since my graduation is about 6 months away, it’ll probably be on hold for a while.

In other news, I’ve been learning Maya on my own for about 9 months. It’s a good change from 3DS Max. I get the hang of animating, so now I’m practicing my modeling skills. The characters I’ve come up with on my own time are slowly in the process of being modeled in Maya. My next step is to learn how to rig. I had a little introduction to it in 3DS Max, but I think it would be a good understanding to have in Maya. I just want to get enough knowledge to understand how it works. My main focus will be animation no matter what.
