D&AD New Blood 2018 winning character design and narrative animation project - a redesign of an existing Beano character and accompany 30-second narrative animation. Technically my first character design project, and pushed me to study it formally! Also my first animation project - animated entirely in Photoshop.
I thought it would be fun to create a title-sequence, as if for an animated cartoon. Her foil as a cat character is that she is afraid of heights (also probably allergic to cats and lactose intolerant). I loved creating her!
