Blame Your Brother Animation Studio

A behind the scenes choreo X animation side by side of Clavit’s choreography prowess and the animator’s mastery to capture it. The animators did an incredible job of referencing the dance moves and aligning it to the storyboard & camera angles - pure magic. ✨⚡️ Client: Doodles Executive Creatives: Burnt Toast , Ingi Erlingsson, Sammy Moore Executive Producers: Dotti Sinnott, Rebekah Ratliff Choreographer: Calvit Hodge IG Edit: Phil Scarano Check out the full video at https://lnkd.in/ge_DgnvM

Lil' Ghosty is back for the spooky szn! 👻

An initial exploration/style frame of Deysi’s world & story that leans into the “Doodles” style. From the start, we knew that it was important for us to push the character posing into a dynamic space of “fish eye” styled lenses etc…inspired by early 2000’s music videos. ✏️ Todd Kauffman, Robert Bryson, Matthew C., Matt Allen

We had the amazing opportunity to work with choreographer Calvit Hodge on the “Not in the Store” video. Based on the track and the story that we pitched as a guide/inspiration, Calvit created something incredibly dynamic, original and memorable. This edit showcases Calvit’s choreography prowess and the animator's mastery to capture it. 🤙 Check out the full video at https://lnkd.in/ge_DgnvM Client: Doodles Executive Creatives: Burnt Toast, Ingi Erlingsson, Sammy Moore Executive Producers: Dotti Sinnott, Rebekah Ratliff Choreographer: Calvit Hodge IG Edit: Phil Scarano
