Nugget's furniture is endlessly "playwithable" and that sense of creativity and fun allowed us to push these frames and animation into a very adventurous and imaginative space! https://lnkd.in/gsciquui

How do you even make that?! It's a question we get a lot in animation. Are we modern day magicians? Wizards? Yes - and you should hire us for your next spell. Here's a little behind the scenes work from the Unboxing video we made for Nugget. https://lnkd.in/gsciquui

With the 100 degree weather expected here in NC this week, it's only appropriate we drop some hot keyframes to match those temps! Check out one of our all-time favorite collaborations with the folks at Nugget Furniture - such an incredible team and some of our favorite neighbors over in Durham!

Take a look! Our newest dashtronaut's welcome project is in the books and it's got our heart pump'n. Give our intern, Sehee a follow to see all the amazing work she creates for us this summer! https://lnkd.in/eFDSp-kS

Sometimes even the smallest shots require a crew to bring to life! Here's some behind the scenes footage of the rocket ship animation. Shout-out to dashtronauts John McGowan, Steph Hallett, Luke Liscom, Jacob Garcia and Jake Page for teaming up and bringing this to life.

Storyboards provide clarity for ambiguity. By detailing all the shots we need to capture, storyboards become the map for production. They ensure all the stakeholders are bought in on the direction and give our DP and crew a north star to follow to ensure we have enough coverage to craft the story we want to tell. Here's a few of the storyboards artist, Jake Page pulled together! https://bit.ly/dash_bsize #storyboards #animation #liveaction #preproduction

The BSize project had a little bit of everything - including these fun characters of the kids imaginative world! Who says alligators and aliens can't live in harmony? https://bit.ly/dash_bsize #animation #motiongraphics #characteranimation

Here's a few early style frames we played around with for the project. Trying to find the right balance of "just enough" and "should we add some more" was a big topic of conversation in the early stages of development. Shout-out to Matea Losenegger and John McGowan for these great shots!

Hot off the press we've got a new #tuesdaytakeover with Antoinie Eugene: a Motion Designer who loves to explore the endless creative possibilities in design/ animation and how it can be applied across various platforms. Here's a snippet of the conversation - full interview https://lnkd.in/gFyWw_nv ----- Bella: Do you have any advice for fellow freelancers trying to go full-time? Antoinie: Going to events such as conferences and meetups has been an amazing way to meet people in industry and connect on social media or linked in. You may find the opportunity to show a studio owner or producer who's looking to hire what you've been working on! Bella: Where do you find inspiration? How do you combat burnout? Antoinie: Every work day I like to briefly look at motion channels that post new work. Good Moves TV, Wine after Coffee, and good ole instagram feed has tons of inspiration to pull from and add to my never ending reference library. -----

Everyone talks about authenticity but what does that mean for animation? The Bsize Inc. video is a perfect example of how motion can be used to accent projects and make them more human. The BoT Talk device, which helps parents communicate with their kids, also shows the importance of play and that's an empowering part of the product that couldn't be visualized without the help of animation.
