Directed work and other stuff

For our directed work we are supposed to enter a contest of our choice. I have entered the omnthly 11 second club contest. This is to design an animation based on a small sample of sound. I want to use this character for my animation: This is max. However the porblem is that I cannot access the files for this character. The aim of the animation was to get this character to buy a half pint of beer, drinking the drink then leaving but after a while he wishes he had the full pint instead.

However my alternate work is to improve my skills in maya by following a few tutorials from some books i have brought. These will hopefully help my learn more about the programme and help understand how to use more tools more effectively.

Game: Serious Sam 2
Genre: FPS

It has many different types of agricultural styles as the game is based in different times and locations so most of the scenery is different bar the weapons used. The game is based in five different times. Aztecs, swamp, volcanic, China, moon, earth and medievil/fanstsy. Although in this game the character doesn't properly open doors there are different challenges to opening the doors for instance, finding a set amount of keys or kill a certain amount of emenies.
