Description:


    Washed Up is about Mort, a loner with a yearning for the wide-open spaces and, most especially, this year’s SIGGRAPH conference in San Antonio. Awakened by a scurrying crab, Mort quickly begins his preparations for the big event. SIGGRAPH doesn’t come to San Antonio often. Mort needs to look his best and dress the part. He carefully selects his finest Texas wear, including dapper suede boots and a broad rimmed cowboy hat. A few finishing touches and he’s ready to go. Well almost.

    Washed Up was created entirely with Maya, textures with Deep Paint 3D, and composited in Shake and Flame.
