Demo reel opening



So the huge project I was working on for at&t finally came to an end a few weeks ago, and I just started working for Furnace Media again today for another College Board project.

During the few weeks of break I had, me and my friends got together to finish up our demo reel which we have been trying to finish for the longest time. Above is the demo reel opening I made using maya and after effects. It has been so long since the last time I touched Maya, I barely remembered how to do anything. Those simple rotating wheels took me almost a day and a half to finish. I need to use Maya more consistently before I forget everything about it.

Unfortunately the opening above didn't make it in our reel. Upon my friend's request, I had to change the color of the wheels, and get rid of the old film effect. But for my own taste at least, I like this version the best.
