Christmas Card - Studio Giggle

Sophie Panteli

As part of my time working at a creative agency in Bristol called Studio Giggle, I was given the opportunity to create the company Christmas card. We wanted to make something witty, snappy and fun, not your average soppy Christmas animation!
I hand illustrated the assets in Procreate using water colour brushes. I composited these inside of After Effects with textured paper layers to give a warm and nostalgic feel. After rigging and animating Father Christmas and all the individual scenes and assets, I mixed in music and bespoke sound fx to pull the whole film together. You can watch it in the link above - enjoy!
