I had the pleasure of designing and directing the animations in this two part mini food show for Carnival Cruise Line starring Guy Fieri!
Guy chats with passengers at his restaurants on board the Carnival cruise, showing them the new meals. As they take a bite we enter their mind by diving into an animated world!

ANIMATION PROCESS
The characters were animated frame by frame in Adobe Animate. The scenes were composited in Adobe After Effects, where I connected the classic animation with the backgrounds and added camera moves, special effects and color correction.
PREPRODUCTION
The preproduction phase included style exploration, storyboarding and illustrating the finalized style-frames. Below you'll find some behind-the-scenes content!
