Hello, all. My school has a Multiple Exceptionalities class. The kids in this class are all amazing, and really bring a lot of joy to the teachers and students of our high school, Anderson CVI. Adrian graduated from school this year. I'd see him in the hall and he'd tell me that he was "moving on to bigger and better things." His teacher let me know that he wanted to be the voice of a cartoon and wondered if I could do a short animation using his voice. He is a huge fan of "Ice Age" so he wanted to be a mammoth, and created a character called Marvin. This is the result.
Typically for me, I spent all sorts of time on the character design (Adrian didn't like the first drafts) and rigging and probably four months dithering around with reference video and did the final animation the day before!
Mammoth Animation (for Adrian)
