"Plush Job" Animation Reel
Plush Job is a multi-dimensional adventure through the experience of two plush toys; Buni and Bear. While boarding a train, they smuggle aboard a very strange and powerful device that should not go into the wrong hands. Even the Conductor is suspicious of these two adorable plushies.

The concept art below was the first attempt at seeing a broad visual of the story and the team agreed to use it as a blueprint and motivation to start. Unfortunately, I don't have much practice in 3D modeling but I was able to model Bear and finish the remainder of the Conductor's model. Regardless, it turned out great with the help and support of my professor.
A similar but different technique I used from the Pressure Project was to animate the Conductor's eyes and some of the special effects. Hand-drawing the animation was much quicker than creating new facial rigs and learning certain animation effects when time is limited.
