Studio: Transistor Studios
We had a lot of great and talented artists for this spot, working with the great John Payne who was the lead and TD director, I was on the animation team as well as helped with technical issues when John was busy. Although challenging, we had a lot of fun on this one.
Using MASH in Maya, I painted in the condensation on the bottles and the labels.
Jumping from shot to shot, my duties included technical support, animation, pre-viz animation, some modeling and more.
Shot 01 – Scene setup, animation of the fruit and cap going off

Shot 07 (00:07 – overhead shot) – Rig and scene setup, animated the camera going up and the fruits
