This demo reel was part of a quarter-long independent project for Cal Poly’s Advanced Maya course.
Over the course of the class I explored scripting in Python and MEL and delved into the technical components that make Maya such a powerful software. All of the clips shown in the video are created using Python tools I developed.

The video ended up being chosen to be showcased at the Cal Poly University Art Gallery for their annual student art exhibit. 

This project was also a great way to explore different Maya features such as:
– nParticles
– nCloth
– Motion captured animation
– Lighting techniques
