Heavy Object Lift Animation
I created this project at Wits Digital Arts Animation
at The University of The Witwatersrand in Johannesburg, South Africa.
The objective was to plan and animate a 3D character
that lifts a heavy, rounded object onto a pedestal in Maya.
I based the movement and positions of the character
on the Atlas Lift that one sees in Strongmen competitions.
Heavy Object Lift - Planning:
Final Animation:
This is one of my first projects that I have done in Maya that involved a full character animation
(without facial expressions) with another object.
Once I have more experience with 3D animation, I aim to revisit my projects (such as this one)
to improve on smoothing the animation and making it seem more realistic and seamless.
Thank you for watching!
Feedback is also appreciated =)
