This film had a year-long timeline, where I worked alongside two other animators to create a three and a half minute short film. For the film, I was responsible for the background art as well as some of the effects. I was also responsible for this clip, in which we get to see the backstory of the antagonist: Rattus. I created all the assets and backgrounds in Procreate and Photoshop, and then animated them using After Effects.

This film had a semester-long production timeline, from concept to post-production. I worked with a team of 3 other animators, and we were tasked with creating an educational short about an endangered species. We decided to focus on the life cycle of the Great Lakes Sturgeon and accomplished this with both computer and stop-motion animation. Check out some of my production checkpoints below!
