Abstract
Our animation for “Burgiir” was made to invoke feelings of hunger from the viewers. As the
story opens on a classic family recipe book, we enter the world of the perfect burger’s creation.
We created a dynamic, interesting, and attention-grabbing story built with atmospheric lighting,
tracking shots of the ingredients and detailed models. This was achieved by using the ray tracing
renderer ‘Arnold’ to create real-life ambiance of a live kitchen. In completing this project, work
was done individually and in a group setting, allowing inputs from all team members and
communication. By dividing the work, the project was finished and rendered within the time of 2
days. This project was a great introduction to Maya software and allowed exploration of many
components of the program. We hope you enjoyed our “Burgiir” animation as much as we
enjoyed creating it.
