#maya 2017

[meet-the-mun-mallory]

A project I’ve been working on for Advanced Animation. We only had about three weeks to work on it and it was a solo project. I made and rendered (Arnold) it in Maya 2017, composited (a lot) in Adobe After Effects, and rendered it again in Media Encoder.

Finished my first modeling project for class and I’m quite proud of how it turned out!

Final Major Project Characters, Charlotte Laycock

Renders and marmoset viewers of the characters I've made for my Final major project for uni, going to post up the scene they're all in separately. For this project I wanted to focus mainly on characters, they've all come together to throw a street party

Check out my latest work from university! I started this not long after the Spyro nostalgia brief. These characters are my own I’ve been working nonstop all summer on this since the year has an extra semester in it, it’s been stressful but it’s all coming to an end now.

It’s a group of characters celebrating a street party, the full scene isn’t up yet these are just the marmoset viewers so far

A rather specific tip today for MAYA 2016 and up:

You can colour code items in the Outliner. 

Select the item you wish to colour code

Go into the Attribute Editor

Go to the drop down menu labelled 'Display'

Check the check box labelled 'Use Outliner Color', with a colour swatch underneath

Choose a colour and voilà

Happy Maya working!

Another 3D bottle from the amazing Magic Bottles by Vera Velichko.

Switched to Maya 2017, but decided to stick with Renderman as I’ve already set up all my shaders exactly how I want them. I think for whatever my next project is, I’ll dive into Arnold then. 

Pretty happy with the way this came out, didn’t work out exactly as I had hoped but still pretty good. 

Something in my scenes are just driving up the RAM usage. Struggled to render out the particles, and only got them working when I rebuilt the particle system in a fresh scene. Can’t figure out what it is though. The render even crashed the bf’s machine that’s got 32 GB of ram!! So, something is definitely wrong. 

Don’t know when I’ll be able to get back to this. Probably starting my new job on Monday (or at the beginning of next month), but I’ll be busy with that. Maybe I’ll find some time (and energy) to work on this every now and again. 

Made in Maya & Renderman
