NETFLIX - STORYBOTS ANSWER TIME

CHARACTER DESIGN LEAD

I was called to help get the StoryBots reboot off the ground at the beginning of 2020. I developed the character design language for the show, designed dozens of characters, created character design guidelines, and oversaw the development of custom Harmony rigs for animation. I simultaneously directed the 2D animation on the series, which meant that I could ensure the animation adhered to my standards of appeal.

NETFLIX - ASK THE STORYBOTS

CG ANIMATION/CHARACTER LEAD

I started animating on the first season of Ask the StoryBots in 2015. By 2016 I was leading the CG animation team, and redesigned the CG characters for season 2. I remodeled the characters with 2D appeal principles front-and-center. I created comprehensive animation guidelines, spearheaded the creation of custom Maya rigs, and was responsible for keeping the animation on-model.

I loved designing characters with a mix of 2D and 3D techniques. Some of the characters below required Maya modeling, Photoshop painting, and After Effects facial animation.
