Step into spring

  • Joshua Callaghan

I had the fantastic opportunity last year to work on some animations for New Balance & New York based fashion brand Aimé Leon Dore. This was originally a sketch from that project that never saw the light of day - I decided to work it up to final as a way of practicing cell frame animation and honing my skills further. Unused or abandoned sketches and ideas from projects are always worth keeping in a folder somewhere for a rainy day - or week, it's great having a concept for a short personal piece of work ready to go when you have some downtime. Hope you dig it!

Little peek at the rough sketch, planning out the first and secondary motion and the general composition. All frames (rough and final) were illustrated in Procreate and composited in After Effects.
