Kitchen Cutting AnimationThis piece was made for my Character Animation class in my junior year of the School of Visual Arts.

Although a bit rough, I learned a lot about prop parent transitioning. Software: Autodesk Maya Date: April 2022

ABOUT:
​
Hi, I’m Lance, a BFA Computer Art graduate from the School of Visual Arts. Over the years, I’ve learned to become malleable within the 3D pipeline, but it is 3D Character Rigging and 3D Character Animation that I’m genuinely passionate about. Even before attending college, my experience in animation enabled me to teach CG classes in my former middle school. During my time at SVA, I’ve worked with independent teams on professional productions like games, short films, and advertisements. In the later years, I joined the "No Photography" team, which went on to win "Best In Show" for the class of 2023. I do freelance work and bring life to many different projects, including some of my own. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, watching TV shows, and playing games with friends. I watch animated features primarily, often searching for inspiration when I self-produce my animations. I hope you’ll consider contacting me if you need freelance animation done.
