    paper 2D Animation Using Traditional and AI Techniques

    I created a high-impact Energy Drink Advertisement for a client using a hybrid workflow that combined traditional 2D animation techniques with advanced AI-powered animation tools.
    The project involved designing dynamic character movements, energetic transitions, and bold visual effects that matched the fast-paced style of modern advertising.

    Using hand-drawn animation principles for expression and timing, and enhancing them with AI tools such as Veo, Runway, and Pika, I was able to produce smooth, cinematic shots with professional-quality motion and lighting.
    The final video delivered a high-energy, eye-catching commercial that showcased the product in a modern and visually engaging way.

    This project highlights my ability to merge creativity + technology, producing high-quality animated ads with speed, style, and precision.
