A project animated in Cinema 4D, rendered in Redshift, and composited in Premiere Pro.
This was so fun to make! I really wanted to create a short video based on my love of Mario Kart and cute things. This was the result.

A style board I put together at the beginning of the ideation process. I love this style of 3D, and I really wanted to capture this fun and whimsical aesthetic.

This was the original model I made for the character. Thankfully, I made some changes later on down the road. The character was completely modelled and rigged by yours truly.
The go-kart, unfortunately, is not mine.

The original storyboard was a little different from the final project. Once I started animating, I decided to make some changes based on personal preference and time constraints.
