Parenting is a tool in Maya which allows the user to move an object with another object simultaneously. For this task, we were given a Maya file with Max and a ball. We then had to animate Max picking up the ball, using this parenting method. The object can be connected and disconnected anytime during the framing process.
I completed the task without any trouble so to make things more interesting, I created an animation which shows Max throwing a ball. To get the leg and arm poses right, I was recorded to act out the process, which helped me get a more realistic result.
