"Proud Bird"
Cartoon Network X Exceptional Minds
"Proud Bird" is a thrilling aviation-action adventure story that I wrote and directed. This short film is one of four original animated pieces created in collaboration with Exceptional Minds and Cartoon Network Studios. As my directorial debut, I contributed by storyboarding, designing characters and aircraft, and animating the short.
"The Weather Monitor" Storyboard
"The Weather Monitor" is a storyboard project I created as a mentee for the Netflix Animation Foundations Program, where I was put in a story team to create an original story based on a prompt about a change in the weather. The concept was inspired by the cryptid mythology of atmospheric creatures that resided above the clouds.
"Frank's Magic" Storyboard Sequence
This is another storyboard sequence from the Dungeons & Dragons campaign project, "The Dregs". This segment, featuring a mage named Frank is among one of the 10 characters I used for storyboarding the action scenes.
Superhero 2D Animation Project
This animation was part of The Superhero Project. I was assigned to help animate the action scenes with the blob creature. Animated in Toonboom Harmony.
