Kick-ass Holidays!
Gingerbread ninja uncovered.
​​​​​​​
When the holidays arrive, 'tis the season for transitioning from animation desks to kitchen tables – and it's OK for things to get a little messy! We created our gingerbread ninja to put the icing on the past year - one with no shortage of disruptions and obstacles, 'cuz that's the way the cookie crumbles! By the way, check out our other sweeties in the scene who were also part of the party. T'was a year that sharpened our tools on this side of the screen, keeping it super satisfying after all! Just a little holiday season reminder that if a tiny man in Candyland can crush it - anyone can!

SKETCHES


In the sketch phase, we aimed to develop the most fitting character with the perfect "candied" weapon while using body language to depict how dumbfounded he feels - seen clearly in his facial expressions.
