West City Mixing Man
I was asked to make a loopable banner animation for the companies website. They didn't have any set ideas in mind; we just worked from the existing black and blue background art. From this I decided to use their stick figure character as the main mascot.
The biggest challenge in approaching this animation was deciding how a stick figure would realistically move and dance. The initial character design was already provided, so I modelled based on that and then built a custom rig. Below is the final banner video, but also 2 initial concepts that I provided during the early stages, and we workshopped from there.
