Game Animation - Akali & Blurgah

Demoreel

Parkour Animation

This is one of the pieces I am most proud of. As a former gymnast and dancer myself, I love body mechanics, especially parkour and acrobatics related movements, so this was totally up my alley.

Dance Animation

For this piece, I did it on the side as an extra personal practice. I thought dance animations would generally be tough to do, but fortunately I finished it fairly quickly with little iterations.

Akali

Character Intro Animation

This was the first cinematic shot I ever did. It took a while and lots of advice to learn how to animate the camera right. It’s not perfect, but definitely one of the most fun shots for me so far!

3-Hit Combo Attack Animation

This 3-hit combo attack was one of the toughest animations for me because I did this early on in my learning journey when I was still trying to understand IK and FK. I completely botched it, so it took me twice the amount of time. At least I’ll never confuse IK and FK again - I’ve been traumatised.

Walk Animation

Run Animation

Dodge Animation

Blurgah 

Walk Animation

This guy’s name is Blurgha and he is a tough rig to use. It didn’t have much toe and foot roll flexibility so this walk cycle was particularly hard to do. Thankfully, I think I managed to show his heavy weight with each step.
