Its a new year! I’ve sadly neglected this portion of my website for way too long. To get back into things I thought I’d share some of my process in creating an animated eCard for American Greetings a couple years ago. I had SO much fun coming up with the characters, choreographing their moves, and collaborating with animators and sound to make it truly come to life. The full animation can be seen here!
Some of my character development, hand lettering, and preliminary animation process:
Character development rough sketches
Finalized character colors
Lettering style experiments
Storyboards for animation

Danke Schoen (or thank you very much!)
