This transforming helicopter was the main part of the work done for Channel
Seven. I was given a pre-made 3d helicopter model of the Channel Seven News
Chopper and instructed to convert it into a chopper that could transform
in a jet powered "Santa Super-Sleigh". The transformation sequence was going
to be seen in a number of shots throughout the TV special so it needed to
be accurate, believable and able to be shown from any angle. Apart from the
basic model shown the to top of the above screenshot, all modeling and transformation
animation was completed entirely by me.
