Join me in observing an average day in the average life of Sam the Squirrel.

Storyboard / Description
A squirrel just something to eat. He goes up to a tree and bangs on it until an acorn falls down. It falls kind of far away from him though because it bounced off a rock. He excitedly hops over to the acorn only for it to be taken away by a UFO at the last second. The animation ends with a shot of a very sad squirrel.

Discovered this while playing with rendering settings. Thought it looked kind of interesting so rendered it out!
Reflection
Overall, I was quite happy with how this animation turned out. I'm really happy with how I realized my story and I think everything looks good and uniform. The animation feels fleshed out and I'm super proud of that.
You can see that I was very much still learning to use the rig throughout (although I think you can see my improvement). I also think the pacing could have been a bit better, but I was constrained by the fact that even at an incredibly low quality, this animation would've taken 10+ hours to render on my computer. Extending the animation another 10 seconds would've been incredibly time consuming and wouldn't have allowed me to finish in time.
