Winter Night

2025, Autodesk Maya

This 3D modeled animation project takes place inside the world of a snow globe, following the snow girl throughout the evening as she takes part in various winter activities, such as building a snowman, sledding and sitting by a fire pit. I am created all the 3D assets for the film, such as the character model, snowman, trees, cabin, logs and sled, using Autodesk Maya. This project focuses on working through the fundamental aspects of 3D modeling and animation in the Maya software, including creating clean models, the rigging process, the UV mapping process and utilizing the camera tools to create dynamic shots.
