About Me:

Hello! this is Zahra and I'm a student specializing in Characters and Creatures for film. I have a love for animation films and character design and I have spent the past months of my studies developing the skills that I need. I have explored different styles of sculpting and learn more from each one along the way, And I didn't forget to add my special touches to them so it can be unique. After graduating I would love to work in projects that have a since of fantasy which can expand kids imagination and inspire them to be artists as well!

FInal portfolio ProJect

In the final step of this program, my work in progress Portfolio Production final project I delved more in the style that I want to achieve with my work, a more cartoony ready for an animation movie character! after a long period of sculpting and fixing the topology, trying different things in xgen, texturing and playing with lights with compositing to apply on my final renders for the demo reels, I'm now on the final steps of rendering to present my work to it's finest!

Advanced Final Project

In my advanced project I chose something that can push my limits and let me explore new things that I have not tried before like modelling an animal! I really had fun in that part indeed. Style-wise I tried to tune down the stylization and I enjoyed working in making my character more life like. After a long journey of modelling and refining  anatomy, posing, clothing, xgen hair and ton of Uv work and texturing I got to these final results, I have learned a lot from this charcter and I can still improve in areas like lighting and compositing!

Intermediate Final Project

For my Intermediate Term Final Project, I modeled a stylized 3D character inspired by Harajuku fashion that I found most fun to model as it required working on different props along side the character it self! It required a lot of work on smaller details and a vast knowledge in Uvs! with this project I have gained a vast knowledge in anatomy and how to modify it to be more stylized in nature.

FuNdamentals FInal ProJect

For my Term 1 project I have worked on an art piece of some shoe design with special twist which is it had teeth for a sole! I tried to capture the artistic feel of the piece and not make it look fully realistic in nature. This project required both of hard surface modelling and sculpting skills for more organic forms. This project helped me in approaching pieces in a different light where I have to balance between the concept art and 3D.
