At Sequence I worked on a series of motion comic animations for a documentary explaining the most well preserved dinosaur, the Athrocantus Borealopelta. It was found recently in Alberta and in incredible condition. These three short videos cover how the dinosaur lived and managed to become so well preserved. All the simple animation was done using layered PSD's done in Photoshop and recreated in After-Effects.
