Project Management
I created spreadsheets and timelines using the waterfall system. Ran weekly project planning meetings and routinely checked in with team members to track individual progress. Prepared presentation for dailies check-in with professors.
Concept and Story
We find ourselves in a room with a clock person, waking up from his internal alarm. He has task he must complete in order to set off the alarm for the next clock to start. We zoom out once he sets it off and we see he was inside another clock person all along, just one piece of a never ending Clock-ception.

Look Development
The overall look for the short was steampunk and almost all the assets were metal materials. I was the lead in look development and helped surface and shade assets. I created the textures in substance painter and rendered in Maya using Renderman.
