3D animation- Seeking students of Autodesk Maya

Hello
my name is Sharif york
Im looking to start a project that will most likely benefit portfolio's of many different subjects such as the following:
- Modeling
- Animation
- Rigging
- Concept art
- scripting
- Texturing

This is an animation project mainly done in Autodesk maya, Student version to be specific. Specifically for artist who want to improve upon their portfolio, resume, etc. This isn't a paid gig, so money isn't involved atm. Just your time, and the motivation of other students.

- About the project-
Software to be used-
Autodesk maya
Photoshop

-

The project is a video animation that consist of character animations, sci-fi futuristic interior design, and a short story to go along with it. It will require concept art to get the project flowing for the modeling portion. Scripting using maya's Mel or python to implement neat improvements to the project, and last but not least the animation. Complex animations that require the use of the graph editor and different interfaces of maya.
- On a side note, I will do my best to help whomever with these features of Maya.


About me
- Currently a college student, with a major in Business, and minor in graphics design. This semester im also learning Japanese as a third language, and learning Autodesk maya on the side, and improving my modeling and animation skills atm. I have 7 years of experience with these two subjects, but I moved to a more professional program such as Maya. My goal with this project is to have a small team put together to make something fun, and to learn on the way, and also to improve my portfolio. Im actually a easily motivated person and I enjoy meeting people, especially people from around the world. I have goals to travel the world, and maybe live in Japan.
