For this group studio client project, we were assigned to find and work with a client to create something that they could use to promote their business. During the Fall 2022 semester, we worked with Backdoor Records, a record store in Johnson City, TN, to create a promotional video that they could use to advertise their store. With that, we created an animated commercial, which the store has posted on their Facebook and Instagram Pages. On this project I worked as Concept Artist, Storyboard Artist, and Graphic Designer, Stephen Overton worked as Modeler, Retopology Expert, and Environment Set Up, Jarrett McGill worked in Animation, Technical Art, and Lighting and Rendering, and Maheen Pulak worked as VFX and Motion Graphic Artist as well as Video Editor. Music was provided by local band Demon Waffle with their song, "Undertow," and other album covers were provided by other local bands here in the Tri-Cities area. The model that we used was made by Ararat Animation Studio and bought from ANIM PROPS and was titled, "Sophia RIG."
