Good Morning
Good Morning
[Position] :: Olive Sky Creative Space–Designer Dad [Overview] :: the concept to "Good Morning" came from my family and I playing with our food during breakfast one morning as we were making up this positive tune. When creating the video concept, the visuals eventually morphed into close shots of smiling food characters breaking in and out of frame. Only to reveal at the end, a full shot of the characters in a cooking pan still holding their smiles..."Whatever you see? Whatever you do? We hope you have a wonderful day!"

Little Red Bird
Little Red Bird
[Position] :: Olive Sky Creative Space–Designer Dad [Overview] :: My daughters and I watched a little red bird sit on our fence chirping one afternoon. Within less than a minute, he flew away. My oldest daughter curiously asked, "Where did you go, Little Red Bird?", and I heard a new song manifest. The original concept was going to be based off a child looking out the window. However, when my friend, Zack, recorded the vocals he included "and it went a little something like this!", I felt like it didn't go with the original concept but I loved how he brought that phrase into the song. I went back to the storyboard and found my main character. [Role] :: Write, Consult (my daughters), Collaborate, Produce, Storyboard, Animate, Edit, Render, and Post

Playing on the Playground
Playing on the Playground
[Position] :: Olive Sky Creative Space–Designer Dad [Overview] :: The playground anthem is for any child who loves to spend their days at the park...rain or shine! The video concept was originated from three action shot illustrations found on Shutterstock. They were originally used to help narrate the jingle in The Pitter Patter Tune Lagoon book. Deconstructing the illustrations, and utilizing both After Effect's camera and puppet tool, allowed the images to become dynamic. Along with the introduction of the segues, it brought the three key scenes from the book together, making the video one cohesive animation.
