Burgle Bud

Burgle Bud is the story of a clumsy criminal who just wants love from his petty thief peers. It's a 3D animated short film that was created by Taelor Benoit and me, Sam Klug, as our senior thesis project.

Since the 3D animation pipeline can get complicated, we made it a priority to make smart design decisions so that we could create a funny story that felt complete with a team of just two people.

Here's some slides of our behind the scenes work, everything from the facial rig to concept sketches to some of our prop models.
