So as the weather in Kansas was frightful and I still had to be at school, so we started working on a new project in Maya to incorporate the cruddy weather. We created a snow scene. We would start by drawing an abstract shape and then repeat the shape multiple times over and over until we had something that looked like a snowflake, unique and different. We then repeated this process over and over again until we had about 7-10 snowflakes. We then created a wall and and beveled out a window from this wall. We then applied a background and animated the snowflakes in a path down. You just repeat those motions over and over and you are done and ready to render.
