Animation Highlight: Adobe eLearning Suite 2
Friday, June 4, 2010 at 11:35AM For the Adobe project we teamed up illustrator, Andrew Imamura, with animator, Alphonso Orozco, to create the character of Karen. Adobe was so impressed with our work and with our developement of this character that they used our animation source files to develop an entire tutorial campaign around "Karen's Story."
You can see an example of these tutorials on Adobe's YouTube channel.
(Rumor has it they also made t-shirts, though I have not yet seen one.)
This project was challenging in that it had an aggressive deadline, and the client was eleven time zones away. I think. It may have been twelve. All I know is, I was often exchanging emails with the client until well after midnight.
With the aggressive deadline we were given, Alphonso pulled at least two all-nighters to get it done on time. I know this because he emailed me at 3am and called me at 5am. He works hard, and I appreciate all he sacrificed to deliver the project.
And for the record, in case you are a wondering if we'll produce a 2 minute animation for YOU in three weeks, the answer is... yes... for an additional fee! :)
Also worth noting: Adobe requested a non-standard video size that would fit within their web banner space. My compliments to Andrew for designing a storyboard that filled out Adobe's requested non-standard video size quite nicely!
