BS in Entertainment Design - Animation — Entertainment Design

Dokkaebi

'Dokkaebi' is a CG animated short developed as a part of the Capstone program in the Entertainment Design, Animation track. As the creator, I led the project from concept to completion. 'Dokkaebi' is about a young mythical creature called 'Dokkaebi' based on Korean folklore. He must take care of a baby in order to earn his title as a guardian Dokkaebi despite his shortcomings.
Learning Outcomes:
Directing this project gave me hands-on experience with the full CG animation pipeline—from storyboarding and visual development to 3D modeling, rigging, texturing, animation, and lighting. Actively participating in multiple stages of production allowed me to grow as a multidisciplinary artist. Additionally, leading a diverse team of artists across various disciplines strengthened my skills in collaboration, communication, and project management.
