Treasure Nest
Project Medium: 3D Animation
Treasure nest is a 3D animated short, created by JAM Productions, following the adventures of Blue, a cat-like creature, in search of a hidden treasure. Along his way, blue discovers a bird creature, named Peanut, who he reluctantly brings along in hopes that she will be the key to unlocking the treasure. Through the use of software, such as Maya, Zbrush, Photoshop, Houdini, Nuke, and After Effects, JAM Productions presents a beautifully hand-painted world, in which Blue's resolve is tested throughout his journey, eventually leading him to a prize of which he never expected.
