Midnight_Heist

Summary: For this project, I used Maya to animate a pre-rigged model in a ~9 second-long scene.

Details: For this assignment, we were asked to have the thief character interact with the diamond, but were given complete creative liberty as to how the scene played out. For my scene, I decided to have my character begin by posing as a statue (roughly posed after the statue of David), before making his way to the diamond. About half way to the diamond I have the security guard return, forcing the thief to pause before continuing to the diamond's platform. After accidentally flipping a lever that begins to lower the diamond into its podium the thief manages to the get his hand caught in the stand, which is where I decided to leave the scene.
