Shh! It's a Secret Commercial

Here's the first commercial I worked on, again produced through ACME Filmworks. It's from about a year and a half ago in Feb. '05. It was directed by Dave Wasson, storyboarded by Gabe Swarr, with animation by me, Aaron Horvath, Tony Mora, and Pong Carlos. I forget who did the layouts, so if anyone knows, lemme know. I animated the last two sections, Tropical and Vanilla, as well as comping the whole piece together and adding transitions and titles and whatnot. Aaron Horvath animated the first part, Rose. Tony Mora animated the second part, Peach. And I forget what Pong Carlos animated. The end dancing maybe? Or maybe that was Aaron too. I was quite a lot of work to be doing on top of a fulltime job. Getting the sparkles right was a feat in itself. But I think it turned out pretty good. Also, I was a nerd and made all the stars in the beginning shots accent to the beat of the bassline in the song. You gotta look closely for that though. Oh yeah, and the dialouge audio is scratch and not the final. We did some 15 sec. spots as well, which I'll post soon.

Dude, I don't know what you're talking about. You must've misread.

I though someone linked to my blog, but spelled my name wrong. It's a mind bender that you're in the animation biz, too. Congrats on the work. It looked good.

Sweet. I like the transitions a lot. That "grrr" the guy does is too funny! hahaha
