Mating Tales - A Scholar Original

Role - Cel Animator

• •

During my time at Scholar, I was tasked with animating a few hybrid creatures for this delightfully bizarre animated short. Telling a story of different creatures coming together in an exceptionally strange celebration of Valentine’s Day, the team at Scholar hopped aboard and came up with some twisted new animal creations that were an absolute pleasure to animate.

You can find my parts of the collaboration below.
