This is one of my works I tried for my uni application in 2022, I tried to create a 3d animation using Arnold Maya, including whole process from storyboard and design to rigging and animation, took me 6 months (really a long time, frustrated and exhausted tbh hhh). But it was still fun to make animation, it's just that next time if I get a chance to make an animation again, I'd like to try motion capture, which would definitely work better. The pictures show the idea and the main process of how I made it, and the video is linked below.
