For Christmas 2022, I created a "Sleigh Flight" animation scene in Blender. I started with a reference image, 3D modeled a deer, and shaded it afterward.
I then added an armature to the reindeer and created 3 different animations. The first two animations comprise a standing pose, and the third is a walking animation of the animal.
I followed this up by creating a winter landscape from 3D houses I had modeled and used asset packs. I also remodeled the Christmas sleigh from an asset pack and positioned Santa and a helper on it. I then modeled a rope from the sleigh to the reindeer, which adapts to the animation of the reindeer.
To do this, I let the sled move forward along the Y-axis with the reindeer in the interaction of the walking animation. Finally, at the end of the runway, both objects lift off together into the sky. Having done that, I created a song to go with it on the guitar.
Here you can watch the final product:
