Awaking the Monster

In the previous assignments, we learned how to create digital animations using Maya and Mudbox. These skills included modeling heads, sculpting shapes and expressions in Mudbox, using rigging, creating hair, and other features in Maya. For Assignment 4, we were required to utilize these skills to create a 30-second animation on any topic. I chose to create an animation about a sleeping head that wakes up to the light, grows angry, turns into a monster, and says, “who dares to wake me?” To create this animation, I used various techniques learned in previous assignments, such as modeling in Maya, adding details and expressions in Mudbox, using rigging, creating a storyboard, lighting, camera angles, and sound effects. The end result was a 30-second animation that showcased my skills in digital animation and told a story utilizing the techniques learned.
