Not only did I storyboard Vox Populi, I animated this fun shot, too! Everything is hand drawn from scratch, no 3D elements were used. Lots and lots of arcs (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)

Here's a first pass I did for the #1houranim challenge: Stretch!
Thank you for suggesting I animate a pikmin, and for naming him Philbert ⋆ ˚｡⋆♡
Future streams, I will tie down and add inbetweens to this little guy. #animation

I was pulled on to help composite this beast of a spinny shot! Which was funny having no context at all and as always was just impressed by what all the artists did! Love the peg work to create the spinning around them and the going from in front to behind to in front again, Aven!
This is it… the biggest spinny shot I’ve ever worked on!!!
There was NO 3D involved in the character animation!! I created the camera move by placing the characters on pegs. I was so excited when they assigned this to me, I love a challenge >:)
