Press Start

“Press Start” was my first attempt at 3D animation. I wanted to attempt something a little different from the bouncing balls and stick figure fights common among first time animations, so I took some inspiration from one of my favorite video games, Elite (1984), and created a brief but visually distinct space battle. This also resulted in my first foray into Adobe After Effects and vector graphics in Autodesk Maya.
