An Inventor's Journey Animation Design Created For Ericsson
An Inventor's Journey Animation Design Created For Ericsson
Brought on by Duke & Duck to animate characters for an Ericsson project. Originally planned as a live-action doc on innovation, the concept shifted to animation due to COVID-19.
Agency Duke & Duck asked me to help create an animation for their client Ericsson. My role was mostly character animation. This project was originally thought up as a documentary about innovation. Since the camera crews were not able to film due to COVID-19, they decided to pivot to an animation treatment.
