Love creating these, piece done for Sanctum
We decided to shift away from their old branding visuals to something newer and more suitable for them, and this is what we came up with!
What do you think? 😃
Animation + Storyboarding by me
A part from the Landys promo I animated. The arc paints itself out of job photos, then collapses into the app feed.
Do you think that style matches the theme?
The way the arc paints itself out of the photos before collapsing into the feed has a nice build-up-and-release rhythm to it. Did you time that reveal to a specific beat in the audio, or was the pacing locked before sound came into the mix?
Krok is a chaotic and inventive frog who lives in a hidden creative workshop inside an abandoned industrial building. He sees possibilities where everyone else sees junk.
For the Cantina Challenge, I created Krok’s pilot episode: a 60-second animated short where his improvised engineering turns a pile of discarded metal into a homemade transforming robot.
The goal was to explore how a character can be more than a visual design, giving him a recognizable personality, environment, sense of humor, and a story engine that can generate future episodes.
Krok’s creative philosophy is simple:
Build first. Figure out why later.
The episode combines character animation, visual comedy, sound-driven storytelling and a handmade scrap-metal aesthetic to introduce the character and his chaotic world.
This project was created entirely in Cantina, from character development to the final pilot.
