Percy Cat of the Seas

Date

2020-2025

Some behind the scenes on my final year project, about a silly cat pirate who during one of her adventures comes across a thunder storm.  For this project I used both Autodesk Maya and TV Paint.

The pre production process:

I knew I wanted to do a pirate character from the beginning, so I started to do some initial sketches to get ideas going and eventually the idea of a cat pirate came to me as I thought it would be comedic.

The ocean i found was really tricky to animate, so i tried my best to simplify as much as I could.

Production Process:


The opening shot was rotoscoped using a boat model made in Autodesk Maya. The character animation was animated pose to pose, the 2D VFX were done straight ahead.
