As a graduating student at Dawson College's 3D Animation and CGI program, I have to create a 1 minute animated film by the end of May 2023 to be presented in front of my peers and industry professionals.

While my movie is nowhere near done, the story has evolved quite a bit over the months, as have the characters and the set.

So here is Josie Lautrec, my main character!
A girl with a dream. A very unique dream... To perform in the most prestigious opera house in the world; L'Opera de Paeonia. Jo dreams of following in the footsteps of her idol Elsie Celeste Delacroix (world-renowned contortionist) and is willing to do anything for it!
However, things do not go as planned...

I’ve modeled Jocelyne in ZBrush from scratch. Some of her symmetrical details (like the buttons) were modeled in Maya. She has been entirely retopologized in ZBrush, and her UVs and rig (personalized Advance Skeleton) were done in Maya.
These are her high polys. The low polys are done and ready to be baked. She will then be textured in Substance Painter and animated in Maya!
