jump!!

In my Advanced 3d Animation class we've been working on portfolio pieces for our demo reels. The instructor gave us free reign to pick what we wanted to do. I chose to do a leap and a roll.

There are still things I'd like to go back and tweak before I put it in my reel for instance the lighting, the anticipation of the jump at the beginning, as well as the fast bend he does while he's in the air. But for the assignment this is ok for now.

I've also been hard at work with my team working on our cinematic. I'm really hoping we finish it since we've got a really cool story but we're a little behind and I'm stressing out about it. Here's just a look at something I textured for the environment. it's just one of the background pillars. (also keep in mind I really have no clue how to read hieroglyphics. I was just going for something convincing heh ) Click the image to see the bigger version.
