Rive animation for "Baby Hercules" children book for YouTube

Turning a classic children’s picture book into a short animated film is always an exciting challenge, and bringing to life the magical illustrations of the talented David SanAngelo was an absolute pleasure.

Having already collaborated with David on Animated film "Dundee's undies" (Rive)(https://contra.com/p/ARLMeMMN-dundees-undies-animated-film?r=vera_d3rawyes ), I was thrilled to be invited to join the Baby Hercules project.

As usual, I created the animations in Rive using raster illustrations, then added music, sound effects, and voice-over, completing the final synchronization in DaVinci Resolve.

The result? A short animated movie that captures the same sense of wonder and imagination found in the original pages, but now, the magic truly moves.
