I moved all the way from Austin to New York City to work on a commercial for a hospital in Austin! This was a real fun and challenging project. Seton wanted to match the style of an earlier work produced by the 3D team at CHRLX, but this one had to be entirely in After Effects instead! I worked alongside Elliot Lim, who animated a different spot, and Anthony Ferrara, who masterminded the compositing techniques to create the stylized paper shadows.
It's hard to see as the runners go by, but I really like the Space Man's run cycle.
An early idea that was cut. This banana man was supposed to bring up the rear of the marathon and hurt himself slipping on... a banana.
