Below are some of my favourite works that I created while working on DMK.
Animations
As animators on Disney Magic Kingdoms, we were encouraged to come up with creative ways to introduce beloved Disney characters while staying true to their personalities. Pluto's welcome animation was one of my first tasks while at Gameloft Toronto, and it remains one of my favourites because it was so fun to create, but it was also the first welcome animation to incorporate an additional VFX to convey Pluto's licking the camera effectively.
Frozone's welcome animation was so much fun to animate. Similar to Pluto's animation, I wanted to introduce more visual effects to really show Frozone's skills and personality. I was also very fortunate to have the support of the lead animator and lead artist, who gave me the freedom to experiment and push our game's boundaries. This was, again, one of the first welcome animations to feature a character prop; in this case, the prop was Frozone's ramp, which I modelled and animated myself.
Animations featuring two characters interacting, such as holding hands or dancing together, can be quite challenging. However, I was excited to be assigned Belle and Beat's iconic waltz dance sequence, and I believe the team and players were very pleased with the results :)
