November 2023 - Independent Animation

This project was created by me alone over the course of around 14 days. I created every background and cel in Clip Studio Paint and compiled everything together in After Effects. Probably not the most efficient way to create a 2D animation, and that process did come with a lot of hurdles, but it was also a very versatile process and afforded me a lot of flexibility.

​

As a CG artist I don't get too many opportunities to explore my 2D animation roots, and Early Worm was an incredibly fun exploration of that for me. I could play very fast and loose with all my drawings, and with a 15-second run time I could create a full animation in almost no time at all!
