Most Recent Assignment - Animation

The most recent assignment we were tasked with, was to rig a model, of our choosing and create animation sequences of that model using Maya . I chose to carry on the theme of the walking dead, and rigged a zombie model, with animation sequences consisting of an 'idle' and a 'walking' animation. This was then transferred into the Unreal Engine, and blueprints created to allow the switch between idle and walking. This in turn allowed myself to control the zombie as a 3rd person perspective. The other half of the assignment was to then put this animation in a 'scene' within Maya and render it out to create a 3D Screen Saver with various animations. I found this part of the assignment very time consuming, as the rendering of this 30 second screen saver took a huge length of time. However with the final outcome, it was worth it. In the near future I will update my website with this assignment.
