Cake Test

This animation is a spoof on nub hands on cartoon characters and the lack of finger controls using standard OptiTrack markers. The narrative follows a cake-loving cartoon character skipping along a path and finding a cake along the way. When the character attempts to lift the cake it slips through her hands as she has no opposable fingers or thumbs to hold it with. This animation served as my first test applying motion capture to animation and I enjoyed the idea of combining slapstick humor with a wide-eyed test dummy.
