| At Virgin Interactive, I was a background
and character animator on Toonstruck,
an
animated 2d adventure game for the
pc, starring
Christopher Lloyd. I composited
all
of the video of Christopher Lloyd into
the
cartoon backgrounds and made him interact
with the scenery. I often had
to manipulate
the video frames to make it work. I
did a small bit of the design work
on that
project. We hired out two different animation houses to handle the extensive character animation that the game required, but as the get-everything-done artist, I was often left with messy frames to clean up and extra scenes to animate characters for. I used both traditional animation and several computer packages. The game was cut in half from its original size just a few months from beta, and we were promised at that time that we would be able to use all our work for a sequel. That never happened and some of the seens I show here cannot be found in the game. When I finished all the video compositing, character animation, and background animation, I did all the foriegn-language art changes and the Toonstruck Themepack for the Toonstruck Website. |
