I've had the wonderful opportunity to work on several projects with this premier interactive agency out of Dumbo. These pieces were developed specifically to showcase their interactive design work for Awards submissions as well as showcase current developments for clients.
The challenge of the the Chase submission was to showcase the work and its purpose without disclosing the look and functionality of an on-going project in development. I worked on the concept, design, board development, and animation as well as some script work, music and assisted in choosing the VO talent. It was really a soup-to-nuts type of project within a limited timetable - and is always a challenge that I enjoy.
This first piece helped secure the award of "Agency to Watch" from Ad Age 2016.
These spots represent an array of different skills that I brought to projects for a variety of brands. This includes creating new spots, compositing, rotoscoping, art direction, and adaptation for international markets.

I loved working on this spot. It allowed me to with an illustrator, rotoscope work, and create playful animations in a fun frame rate. Because its easier to develop several spots at once, I also worked on an adult version as well as cutdowns from the originals.

This is a good representation of many projects that I've been brought on to help. This pitch had an extremely tight turn around (days), no locked script, no initial boards, and they wanted roughly a 1-2 minute piece.
With an evolving script and short timetable, I suggested we pair down the visuals in order to focus and highlight key message points from the script. By doing this, we were able to create a visual thread that worked in tandem with final script helping propel the narrative forward; ultimately allowing us to get to finished product.
This board set is an initial set that I worked up based on the script at the time. The design work was split into two, as well as the animation work in order to expedite the process. You'll see the final design and animation reflected in the shift in script objectives that occurred over time.

This project was particularly special. Growing up in Lexington, KY basketball is a huge part of the culture, and getting to work on a project that incorporated the UK Wildcat was especially fun.
The ask was to rotoscope the windows of the refrigerator in order to create a brighter more vibrant light once it turn on. There were approximately 9-10 different spots showcasing different mascots with the refrigerator.

This is an example of how quickly pitch work has to happen. Many times, you find that you have a few styleframes, to serve as inspiration and two days to create a :15 sec test spot.

I worked on many different series for Icrossing, and within each series each had a varying number of episodes any where from 3-14. In all instances I worked as an animator, but in many series I would also work as the designer. In several of the earlier series, in trying to finish multiple episodes back to back or in many case overlapping deliveries, I also worked as a producer and post producer.
The first is one of the latest in a series. The other 3 are examples of different series that were produced to assist their clients with the all the different services that they offered. We created a lot of these step-by-step informational animations.
