My 3D Projects


Abigail:

Abigail is a five-year-old candy witch who is very optimistic, caring and shy. She believes that every problem can be solved with candy. She loves nothing more than to play all day and making friends. As part of my second-year project, she was my first original character that I've created.

My Creative Progress

When I first started with my character, I decided to go for the cute factor, meaning: Big eyes, big head, small body, fluffy, adorable appearance and so on. I looked at reference of cute animals, cute creatures and cute humanoids. After considering those three categories, I settled on creating Abigail.

This was my first attempt in creating Abigail. It was both fun and challenging creating Abigail. It was fun because I learned how to create my own character, from the beginning (the 2D sketches and planning) to the end (the final 3D rendered product). I was taught techniques and methods along the way that I never even knew about and used them to their full extent.

But I didn't want to stop there. Even though she was okay as a first attempt in creating my own character, she didn't look nearly as cute as her first sketches. So I decided to start again.

This is where I am at the moment with her. I'm in the process of adding a rig and will start animating her soon.

Cupid:

Logline:  Where it all started

After a long series of heartaches, a woman finally finds the man of her dreams. But she gets a phone call from Cupid telling her that she was, accidentally, matched with the wrong guy. Now she must find ways to prove Cupid wrong.

This was a screenwriting project I was working on and I attempted to make a trailer for. 

It changed more into a monolog though.
