I was brought on by Reliable, a company that manufactures sprinklers, to create an animation that blended education with a playful touch—tracing the history of their products in a fun, engaging way. The sprinklers themselves were a joy to animate. I built a custom rig that allowed for expressive squash and stretch, which really brought the characters to life. Everything was animated in After Effects, and it was one of those projects that felt equal parts technical and creatively rewarding. I loved being able to strike that balance between informative and entertaining.
