Blueprint for Success
|
|
Client: Concept One Media (Animation Test)
Software used: Adobe Illustrator and After Effects Job Role: Everything except audio Audio: Supplied by Concept One Media Description: I was provided with a video and asked to reinvent it using only the audio. Since I had a very limited amount of time in which to deliver the video I wanted a look that was both visually appealing and expedient. I settled on the idea of a "blueprint for success" because it clearly supported the message and lent itself to a stylized look which I knew would be efficient to execute. I designed the characters and storyboards in Adobe Illustrator then imported them into Adobe After Effects for animation, and compositing with the live-action element. |
Stab A Panda: Social Marketing Ad
|
|
Client: Gozer Games
Website: gozergames.com Software used: Adobe Photoshop & After Effects Job Role: Motion Graphics & Illustration Description: A social marketing ad for the upcoming game, "Stab A Panda". I used Photoshop to separate the original game card artwork into usable layers. Then I imported them into After Effects to be animated. I came up with the concept and design for the piece and pitched it to the client. I also did all the motion graphics and the final illustration. The first two illustrations were produced by illustrator, Tommy Benoist. If you'd like to see more of my illustrations for this awesome game, check out the Illustrations Section of my Portfolio. |

He provided the audio and I designed the characters and created all the animation. Since I came in near the end of production, time was of the essence. I developed a very streamlined workflow for this project which allowed me to produce over 3 and a half minutes of animation in just 15 days. |

|
Client: Marketing as a Service
Website: marketingaas.com Software used: Adobe After Effects, Illustrator, Audition and Premiere Job Role: Asset creation, and animation Audio: Me Description: A project I did in conjunction with the marketing agency, Marketing as a Service, for their client Prozess Technologie. I was brought in to do the animation so the design and storyboards were already approved. My job was to work from the given storyboards to create the assets, record and edit the audio, and of course animate it. The creative director gave me a lot of freedom to animate it how I wanted. Afterwards I did the final edits and revisions in Premiere. |
