Anio 5 Kids Smartwatch
The Anio 5 Kids GPS Smartwatch is a safe and modern way of family communication.
It is a child friendly, fully functional mobile phone while leaving out on everything whats not really necessary.
The video showcases a compilation of 5 short Animationfilms we produced to communicate the basic functionality.
The main idea in the development process of the design and color concept was to established the circular shape as representation of a family. Every color arrangement differs slightly while staying recognised as one design language. Every circle is different in size and saturation but stands together as a group - as a family.

// Development
We used the great pre-rigged characters from Ace5 Studios. To avoid shifting the character controls manually into the joints of the Mixamo animation each time we've tried another movement, I eventually automated this process. Frankly, the script is pretty custom and only works for the 5 characters used in the film. But for the intended purpose, it accelerated the workflow tremendously. I am giving away this script for free to use it in your project - if you are interested, just let me know.
