    paper “There’s No safe Place” | 2D Animation Project

    Selected clips from a project I worked on.

    In this project, I worked as an in-between and clean up artist.

    My responsibilities included creating in-betweens from keyframes while preserving the original character shapes.

    I never expected to animate how dinosaurs walk, but it turned out to be a fun and challenging experience.
