After long last, I have completed my animation. It is very different from when I first started, and there were many roadblocks and hurtles along the way. I have learned much and progressed a lot since I started. ​​​​​​​
If I have time later, there are some things that I would like to change to make the animation better. These include:
Re-Rendering the 3D scenes in the Arnold Rendered instead of the Maya Software Render
Adding the voice lines that were originally planned
Updating the models to be more detailed
Adding shadows

Thank you for watching my animation and I hope you enjoyed.
