I had a lot of fun creating this animated lyric video for the song ‘Hometown Girl’ by Shay D. We set quite a tight deadline so I had to think about ways to simplify the animation without compromising too much on the character-based cartoon style. There is lots of repetition and use of walk cycles which works well for the concept. I enjoyed creating animation loops of the band playing, the car moving and the tumbleweed rolling. I’m interested in the idea of a story told through a series of animation loops and that’s something I’d like to explore further in future projects.
