Sandy Lane Collaborative Project
2021
Sandy Lane is a collaborative project done as part of a 2nd Year University module. We used Maya to Model, Texture, Rig and Animate and After Effects to composite.
The animated short was made by a group of four people, Aydin Clayton, Zelda Tickell, Zig Bingham and Owen Lye (myself). We all animated one or two shots each.
Music was made by Abisheke Tikiribandage.
