  • Check out this 3D animated short film called "The Easy Life", produced as a senior thesis film produced at Ringling College of Art and Design by the talented Jiaqi Xiong. For more information, please see the details and links below:
    I made this film on my own but I received tremendous help from faculty, peers, and mentors! In the film, model, rig and animation was done using Autodesk Maya. Pixar"s Renderman was used to render my film. Frames were composited in Nuke to achieve the desired look. The Music for my film was downloaded on KillerTracks.
    Thanks to everyone who supported me, helped me, and inspired me to make this film! Hope you will enjoy it!
    Check out Facebook page for more behind the scene!

    Si les piden que aprendieron del video: Una persona tiene que valerse por sí sola, y no estancarse. como la muñeca que, a diferencia de la niña, pudo avanzar y lograr lo que quería con esfuerzo, la niña poco a poco iba cayendo en la flojera y lograr las cosas fáciles. Cosa que está muy mal y que no se debe hacer.
    si te pide un ejemplo de vida cotidiana sería cuando le pido las respuestas de la tareas a mis compañeros o cuando copio en clase :D; espero les ayude !!!!

    Although the lesson is quite obvious, this was very well done for a silent short. It didn't need dialogue to explain it's purpose, it just showed what it needed to, extra details only required to be sorted out by the watcher themselves.
    Overall, this was an enjoyable lesson, even with how strange it seems on the surface.
