Brand Spanking New Animation!

Weirdest thing happened yesterday. I sat in front of my iMac and starting working in Maya (an animation program). 13.5 hours later I made this: Logo. All my blood, sweat and tears from half a day created that. So weird, because usually it would take me longer to create it.

I had this idea to create an opening logo sequence for my sorority Theta Nu Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc. Something to add to the beginning of videos being made. I sat on this idea for like almost 4 months and it finally bloomed.

Finding an easy way to create the butterfly was a nightmare, but once I figured it out the ball started rolling. The butterfly flapping its wings was surprisingly simple. The only thing that annoyed me was the grass effect. At first it wouldn't render, then when it did, the grass wouldn't appear behind the Theta Nu Xi symbol. Makes no sense, but I'll clean it up and toss it in my demo reel.

Expect to see more!!! :)
