SOJA / Animator & Illustrator
Claritin
After the inside-heavy year of 2020, we at Soja got the mission to produce 2d animations for a music video, where a rapping tree inspires kids to explore the outside! The result was a crazy, colorful, fun-filled project with heavy focus on character animation.
Character animation is one of my favourite type of work. For this project, I had a blast animating a bunch of scenes filled with cute kids and animals. I also illustrated some stuff! A postbox, a butterfly, a videogame and some sad indoor devices.
