Birthday Animations

To keep my character animation skills sharp, I set myself a yearly challenge: creating a short, looping animation for my daughter's birthday. This ongoing personal project is a fantastic excuse to play with character design, motion, walk cycles, and different illustration styles without the constraints of a corporate brief. It’s a fun, lighthearted series that keeps my ideas fresh and brings a lot of her personality right into my motion design. Each loop is themed around her current interests and stage of life, always finding a fun way to visually feature the number of her age.
