My Role
As the lead illustrator, my pre-production duties included rendering graphic assets on Adobe Illustrator CC, designing an illustrative style for the overall video, and creating diverse characters that had an emphasis on androgyny. I worked closely with the lead animator Khoi Vu to ensure aesthetic consistency and file organization to ease the transition from Adobe Illustrator to Adobe After Effects.
