Skate Boarding is not a crime is the result learning allot of tricks in Maya. This is a combination of two animation’s I made. The first one was of Mega Radman my version of Radman Made in Maya. I did this animation where he just sk8 boards. I wanted to do this court scene so I thought why not use the sk8boarding scene as a opener. I had done the sk8 scene as a practice for animation 1 class. I completed this during that class. The first version of this had the Velvet underground as background music saying over and over "your gona reap just what you sow." It had a awesome sound track for the Techno band Juno Reactor. I really had fun with Maya in this one. The lightening effect is used for the electric chair. Fire for the fire. The rope texture practically created a rope on it's own. The grass is from the default grass texture in Maya so is the clouds. I had just got the thousand and one folder of free sound effects that I have used allot since then. I used these sound effects for this animation. Note the cool shadows in this animation. The fire texture gives the effect of the gun shot and ax hole. If you pause this animation the paper at the sheriffs desk say's envy vs. nonsence. This is to show the problem with the court system, but it is so comical I find it hard to take serious. I took the vengeance scene out for this file for size and to keep it happy. I just want to be happy, I swear if I am not happy I can not create happy. Lets be happy people. No more war.
