In the music video for the song "Thinkin'" by Brooklynn, I was responsible for creating character designs and animating each bird sequence for Njenga Films. This involved conceptualizing and developing the visual style of the characters, as well as carrying out the entire 2D digital animation pipeline from roughs to line work to color, integrating each shot with the overall composition and aesthetic of the music video. I utilized Toon Boom Harmony, Premier Pro, and After Effects to execute these shots.
A critical aspect of my workflow on this project was keyframing. I meticulously went in frame by frame to add the specific positioning of the bird characters in each shot. Crafting believable motion is the name of the game, especially when compositing animated assets within live-action video.
