Animated 3D Chicken, my first Maya short

Here's the chicken I created at Friedman 3D ( now Studio Arts) under the instruction of John Park. The original assignment only called for a chicken model to lay an egg. I modeled, rigged and animated the short in under 6 months. The little short I made from this scene was accepted into the 2002 "Bring your own Video" open screening put on by L.A. Siggraph. It was a good break.
