Portfolio 2 Animation - Trumpet Playing

Done on Maya 2010.

3 Camera Angles used.
Blend Shapes applied to Character's (Tiny) face and Trumpet mouth.
- Managed via Set-Driven Key Controllers
Area Lights used to better illuminate setting, but maintain gloomy surroundings.
Character lacks joints on legs, usage of IKHandles were largely unsuccessful so none were applied to the Character's joints.

I would've like to have actually synchronized the trumpet/ bugle sounds with the actual movements of the instrument onscreen, but rendering took WAY longer than I originally planned.
