3D Modelling
This is a WIP.
Recreation of a scene from“The Secret Life of Arrietty.”
For this Intro to 3D Animation project, I chose to recreate a peaceful scene from this Studio Ghibli film. I transformed the original 2D clip into a 3D style. This was my first big project utilizing 3D software, and covered techniques like rigging, sculpting, and animating.

Initial Process
Before the mood-boarding and clean sketches, I did an ideation phase which involved rougher sketches of all the elements I eventually modeled.
Development Process
I then created a mood board for this project. With the original media being 2D, I needed to be clear with what I wanted my 3D end product to look like. I compiled movies and assets created by other artists that inspired me in terms of style, lighting, and color pallettes. After that I created clean drawings to be my modeling references.
