Having been a fan of the world of League of Legends since I was in high school, to say I was excited for the Netflix series Arcane would be an understatement. And when I was given an optional assignment during my time at Hollywood Animation Academy to take a piece of dialogue from the show and animate it in Autodesk Maya, I jumped at the chance to interact with one of the characters of Runeterra. Using a rig sourced from Agora’s November 2024 AnimChallenge, I immediately put my pedal to the metal and got to work. I put a lot of time and passion into this piece, and I like to think it shows – and my mentors and peers seem to agree, with nigh-universal claim that this is one my best works to come out of the program yet!
