Bright Eyes:
Mariana Trench MV
2D Cel Animator
From late May to June 20th, 2020 as ArtCamp’s Intern, I had the honor to work remotely on a one of kind Bright Eye’s Music Video. It brought together a team of 18 individuals from all over the globe to create and develop a MV using 3D modeled scenes polished into a 2D space with hand drawn rotoscoping using ink and watercolor paper.
“The production of the video started at the beginning of quarantine and finished as people came back out of their homes and took to the streets together. In 18 different bedrooms across the world, listening to Bright Eyes, keeping each other company, we got the chance to collaborate on a story about embracing and celebrating change. The animation is composed of 2,200 hand-illustrated ink paintings based on original 3D animation and archival footage. We hope it makes you excited to imagine that everything could be new.” - ArtCamp

Frames were later sold to raise over $48,000 in funds for the NAACP Legal Defence Fund.
