Creature Collective is a series I've been passively working on for almost three years, so of course I've made quite a bit of material for it! You can find a comprehensive and spoiler-free guide to it here.
This was made for a rapid production project, in which I had 3 weeks to animate a short scene. The result was an approximation of how I imagined the scene introducing a new character, Ramden, to the main gang. The audio is from a series called Azumanga Daioh.

The first polished walk cycle I completed during my course, when I still had to compile individual frames from Paint Tool Sai to make my animations. I'm still so proud of it!
The depicted character is þjófi (pronounced thyofee), a primary character in Creature Collective.

This was originally going to be my rapid production project, but due to the requirements including a self-contained story while this one relied a bit too much on prior knowledge or inference, as well as it being a bit too ambitious for the timeframe we were given, I never got to finish it. I absolutely plan to finish it off with a full animation when I get time though, because I'm still really excited just thinking about it!

The animatic for Creature Collective! In truth, it was somewhere between the animatic and cleanup stage, but due to extrenuous circumstances out of anyone's control, we didn't manage to finish it in time. Regardless, I'm extremely grateful to my friends for their dedication to this little project, and I'm excited to finally have the time to finish it off!

This was a short project focusing on impact frames. I feel like I could have done better with the actual impact, but I'm still very happy with the rest of the animation!
