Synopsis:In this animation, a man approaches and enters an empty dojo. Spotting a training dummy, he decides to test his skills. He starts with a wooden pole, practicing simple moves, but upon noticing a katana, he can’t resist trying it out. With the sword in hand, he swiftly slices the dummy into three pieces before calmly leaving the dojo.
Description:This project marked my first attempt at 3D animation featuring human characters. Although rigging and animating felt unfamiliar at first, I managed to work through the challenges. At this stage, my modeling and animation skills were still developing, but there was a noticeable improvement compared to the previous year. The post-production process went smoothly, as I stayed ahead of schedule, allowing me to render the animation during Easter break and make any necessary adjustments in the remaining month.
