CLIENT: Junglevites
STUDIOS: Wondermerk/Wondermation, WeekenderMaking Co.
Wondermerk Studios had developed a series of shorts for Junglevites, a kids vitamin brand, to help promote healthy habits. Once stories had started preproduction, Wondermerk created Wondermation, and hired a crew to bring the series to life. Tim was invited into the role of animation supervisor, to guide the team through the process.
The small team took on many roles in the process, with everyone taking on the entire pipeline. So while guiding the juniors through many of the tasks on the pipeline (and what a crew they were!) Tim managed to take on tasks such as retopology, rig R&D and rollout, UV mapping and animation. He also helped set up many workflow processes to implement across the production.
Additionally the entire crew would sit in on story and production meetings where anyone could put forward ideas to make this project as cool as it could be in it's limited format.
Unfortunately COVID led to Tim bowing out a little early, and managed to animate on episode one before bowing out, passing the torch to a team who had learned a lot and managed to take the challenge and run with it.
