Extra Credit - Lighting a Scene in Maya

One Point- Directional Light for Key

Two Point- Ambient Light for Fill

Three Point - Spot Light for Rim

And a little something extra- since I've been learning a lot about shaders lately, I figured I'd try turning my initials into a bit of a simple lamp in Maya.

Term Paper #3: Special Effects in Animation and Live-Action (or lack thereof)

My first two term paper scores were 95 and 93; I will not be writing a third term paper.

Stop Motion Character Animation

For my stop motion character animation I worked with my roommate Clayton Chan. I set up a (rather risky) camera rig by propping my Surface Pro 3 on a chair. Then we crafted some small figurines from kneaded erasers and each animated a humanoid character. The third surprise character at the end was animated by Clayton, and we split up the work by putting myself on compositing and editing and him on audio (since he worked on the third character). Overall it was a really silly process that got ourselves some good laughs at the end.
