POWER PALADIN - Creatures of the night

In 2021 I was part of a class at RMIT that created a 2D animated music video for ‘Creatures Of The Night’ by Power Paladin through Atomic Fire Records. This was a great experience of an imitated studio environment working on a real-world project.

 

I took on various roles throughout the development and production of the video, including:

  • Character Designer

  • Lead Animator

  • Concept Artist

  • Style Designer

  • Background Artist

Animation

Video summary of all the animation I did for the music video:

I was Lead Animator for nearly 20 shots in Creatures Of The Night. For most of these I did rough character animation and then cleanup for either the whole shot or just the key poses for someone else to inbetween. I also did some cleanup and colouring on other people’s shots towards the end of the project.

Any effects animation in these shots was not lead by me.
