Chicken Dinner Canimation
Role: Animation

I got to work with the great team at Flavor to help animate this spot for Miller Lite played during the live game show ‘HQ Trivia’. I enjoyed experimenting with new techniques and crafting the transitions for this one. This was my first time making a 3D crate in After Effects and I also illustrated the overhead view of the forest and mountains on the beginning shot. I implemented frame-by-frame animation on the parachute and rooster, including some smear frames as he throws his head back to create a more dramatic effect.
