A personal project where I recreated two animation clips and an animated gif from 'Ninjago' (2011) & 'Ninjago: Dragons Rising' (2023). The sword was modelled and rigging in Maya and textured in Substance Painter while the 2D effects were drawn in Photoshop and animated in After Effects. I enjoyed creating Animations 01 & 03 and Animation 02 was very challenging yet interesting.
