Laika (Winner of Audience Choice Award in the Syracuse Student Film Festival) is an original fully-animated short film made in CAR 401 Studio Class. It's the story of an imaginative little girl who dreams of flying to space. After the real space launch is canceled, her sweet dog finds a way to make her dreams a reality.

This class ran exactly like a full animation studio. I worked on asset design and character animation. I also designed and rigged the blueprint to unroll.
