Character Animation
Axel Dangerson Trailer Animation
This is a full length trailer for the fictional ‘Axel Dangerson’ animation. I was responsible for animating the character, animating the background scenes, telling a story and sound design.
Pixar Opening Spoof
This was my first attempt at character animation and rigging. I was given the assignment to spoof the Pixar opener for my client and eagerly took the opportunity. The animation used for the actual ad was much shorter and included gameplay, this is the full length version only including the animation. I was also responsible for sound design.
Alice In Wonderland Spoof
This idea was a client favorite and a top performer! I took inspiration from the beloved story ‘Alice in Wonderland’ and reinvented it for the ‘Best Fiends’ game. We utilized match 3 gameplay to cause reactions for the fiend to eat, drink, shrink and grow with the ultimate goal to go through the door. I was responsible for character animation, sound design, overal video animation, resourcing assets and overall concept.
Save the Fiend
The ultimate goal in ‘Best Fiends’ is to save the fiends from the slugs, I brought that to life through this concept. There are 3 slugs slowly moving towards the fiend, Jojo, in order to create a sense of urgency to save her. To tie in the gameplay aspect, I utilized match 3 gameplay to help Jojo attack the slugs. Every time a match is made, Jojo shot out those game pieces from her hand to hit the slugs and ultimately defeat them. I brought life to Jojo by adding reactions to each move showing her fear of the slug and her excitement for the slug defeat. I was responsible for the concept, storyboard, character animation, overal video animation and sound design.
