This is the planning for a secret animation sequence. It's an easter egg on this website. ;P It's done sometime ago already and I thought I'll just upload the thumbnail stage here. Cheers! :D
This is a long outdated video which I prepared almost 2 years ago. It's not fully meant to be a tutorial hence the fast foward, but it'll be great if anyone finds this useful :P
I was modelling a basic 3D bird in Maya for a short film production I did in school called Gan Cheong Kin (GCK) Season 3.
It's kept really basic because of the style of the film, but it can be brought futher for zbrushing or mudboxing. The model is available from the free downloads section
3D Shading, Lighting and Rendering I did for my friend, Ling Wei. He is really passionate about 3D modelling. If I'm not wrong, this is his first 3D car model!
It's impressive, right? :D
I was trying to achieve a basic studio shoot rendering. It's a pity I do not have nice images or HDRIs to do a photo realistic composite. Hope you'll like it Ling Wei!

The objective of this short animation is to encourage viewers to voice out their fears and thoughts about death. The concept is to show that the more we fear death and refuse to break the silence of death, the more we will live our lives in vain!! That is what exactly happened to Mr. Blue Ball! So let's share our fears and break the silence on death today!
It's for an Eyeka Asia Competition. Spent a total of about 15 hours for this from scratch. I learnt a lot from creating this piece of animation in such a super short time. It's a lot of fun trying to make creative decisions as quick as possible Not forgetting the need to fight away the temptation to fix all the relatively minor artifects.
There wasn't any time at all for refinement so please forgive the final gather artifects in some areas. oh, and the primitive modelling.. Some of the shots should be held longer because the text cannot be registered by the audience.
Despite the super tight schedule, I understood the importance of a timing reel and hence created a super quick timing reel before I went into the production phase. Shall upload that soon too!
In conclusion, it's an rewarding excercise working on this short animation. Hope you enjoy it!
Had a guitar, sketch and chat session last night with Zi Chao! :D I think it's really cool to be exchanging pointers every now and then. I learnt a lot in these sessions!
