Visual consistency & art revisions
Rigging for character performance
Rigging for character performance
I revised and supervised character and prop artwork, focusing on consistent shapes, proportions, and scale. The turnarounds and production references below reflect my work supporting a cohesive visual style.
I led Toon Boom rigging, connecting character designs with poses, hand options, and facial references. The focus was supporting character performance while preserving the look of the production artwork.
I directed animation and composited scenes, bringing characters and environments together for the finished presentation. The selected clips and day/night cycle show my work with performance, lighting, and mood.
