Below you can see my 3D model of Elise. I created her on Fuse by selecting a similar body and face and then adjusting to make her as similar to my character sketch as possible. I changed the bone structure in the face quite a bit as well as body proportions then I adjusted her age, skin texture, complexion, and makeup. Once I had finished that I simply chose the best outfit and hair for Elise from the selections available.

In the video below you can see one of the "action" options available for characters in Maximo. Once I had sent her to Maximo I simply experimented with actions, speed, perspective, and took several screen recordings of it to work with after.

This clip is the final product. I brought my best video clip into Adobe After Effects and cut it to the length I needed. I put an image (the one below) in a layer underneath to be the background and selected Elise's body to cut out the background of the original recording so that the photo could show properly. Then, I duplicated the video/Elise layer and used it to create a shadow. After checking the individual frames to make sure they were consistent I simply saved the clip and converted the format in another program.
