🎬 Tried out a short animation in Maya for the Crazy Takes and Staggers assignment!
Referenced Tom and Jerry this time, using the Tom Cat rig and Douglas the Corgi rig to study those wild, cartoony reactions 😆💥

🎞 Tried out a short animation in Maya, based on Tracer’s move from Overwatch! Super fun studying her snappy poses and timing 💥

🎬 Did a quick animation in Maya! Based on Tom and Jerry, using Jerry’s free rig. Super fun playing with smear frames and squash & stretch 😆

Epic Door animation is finally complete! Added sound effects and the full scene, making the atmosphere much more immersive. Feels so rewarding to see it go from concept to finished piece! ✨

Rough camera cut for my Epic Door animation! Still WIP, but already feels more alive. Next I’ll tweak pacing and angles for a smoother flow!

Just finished the door animation for my Epic Door project! Feels great to see it moving at last. Next up, I’ll be working on the camera shots to really bring the scene to life. Can’t wait to see how it all comes together!

Been diving into my Epic Door project lately! Modeled the whole door from scratch. It’s a bit of a headache but super fun to work on. Still adding more cool stuff to it—can’t wait to show the final look!

🎮 Completed a small game scene with interactions! For the next project, I’ll be trying something new, creating an epic door opening animation.

🛠️ Continuing from the fire effect I tried last time! Added more interactive elements using Blueprint. Still working on it—next up: new interactions and testing sound effects! 🎧

✨I’m learning how to use Blueprint scripts to create interactions in UE! Tried making a little fire effect today 🔥 Super fun and feels like magic haha!

The interior scene is from a Christmas Interior Pack I found on Fab 🎄🧸

First time creating a scene in UE. It took me a lot of time, but seeing it finished makes me so happy and proud.
There’s still a lot to improve, but I already feel satisfied and can’t wait for the next project! ✨🥰🎮

Scrapped my last scene and started fresh in UE! This is just the blockout for now. The building materials still need a lot of work, and for some reason the FAB assets aren’t showing up in the scene, so there’s not much to look at yet. Hoping I can sort it all out tomorrow on the school computers! 💪🎮

First time making a scene in UE5 👀
This is just the blockout stage, figuring out the layout and shapes before dressing it up.
Can’t wait to see where this goes!
