Animations

The animations below consist of both 3D and 2D animations.

You can also check out my YouTube channel, SmithyToons, where I post animated memes parodying my favorite books, movies, and games.

3D Animation Demo Reel

This video includes a variety of 3D animation pieces made in both Autodesk Maya and Blender.

These works showcase my skills as an animator in these programs.

2D Animation Demo

This video showcases my skills as a 2D animator.  The characters, backgrounds, and animation were produced in Toon Boom Harmony.  Postproduction was done in Adobe After Effects.

Additionally, the concept art for these characters can be found under the "Illustrations" tab.

Speck's Pet Supplies GIFs

During my summer 2023 internship with Speck's Pet Supplies, I was tasked to create a catalogue of animated GIFs depicting the company's mascots in a variety of situations. The purpose of these animations was to incorporate them into the company's website, commercials, and newsletters as needed.

Speck's Christmas Ad

This 2D animation I created in Adobe After Effects and was a freelance project that I did for an Indiana-based pet supply company.  Speck's Pets Supplies was holding their annual "Santa's Giftbag Giveaway" as a promotional for the holidays.  I was hired to create an advertisement for their Facebook page, and this was the result.

The background and assets were created by me, with the exception of the pet products.  The characters, although based on the actual mascots for the company, I recreated in Photoshop for the animations.
