In this TV Commercial the animals from a children‘s book wake up and jump into the real world. My part in this project was to bring the monkeys to live.
Character Design
The monkeys’ design was based on the actual illustrations in the book, but changed substantially to make them more appealing in 3D.
Animation
Apart from the monkeys’ creation, I also animated them in this shot.
