Inspired by: Li Bai's poem A Farewell to a Friend (translated by Witter Byner)
Prompt: adapt an existing piece of work.
An assignment for a UCLA Film & Television storyboarding class. The characters featured are the protagonists of MDZS, childhood acquaintances with a tragic past. I added lines from the poem in the animatic to demonstrate the parallels between the poem and the canon story of the characters.
Storyboard 3: Aggiemation Eggheads animated logo (2022)
Storyboard, character concepts, rough animation drawn by me.
I collaborated with my fellow founding members of the newly established UC Davis animation club, Aggiemation Eggheads, to conceptualize an animation for our club's static logo. I gave our egg mascot a personality "bursting" with fun through this rough animation.
