Neko-San - a student short movie (2018)

Neko-San was the student short movie I made from October 2017 to may 2018.

It's a very simple shot inspired by my own experience, as during 2017' summer I received a 3 months old cat for my birthday.

I made everything from scratch. Story establishment, storyboard, modeling, texturing, rigging, shading, animation and rendering. The biggest challenge was animating the cat: I had never animated a quadruped before and I was just decent with bipeds at that time.
