"Gizmo Goes Green" 2D Character Puppeting
Please enjoy this cute 2D animation about Gizmo the cheerful robot, who is trying to keep the earth green!
I participated in the creation of this project as part of a three-person team with two other students from the University of Florida. I was responsible for converting the artwork designed by another team member into a 2D character rig, ready to be animated by our third team member. I separated the art files in Photoshop and exported them into separate PNGs. Using Toon Boom Harmony, I puppeted the character's joints and limbs to allow the character to be animated. The third team member was responsible for animating the character and adding the sound effects.
