The Oxford Group asked me to create an animation for their leadership training materials that demonstrated their 'above the line' concept. To achieve this objective, I created a fully emotive character rig that could reflect the feelings presented in time with the voice over. The rig allowed me to quick pose and keyframe the character and their expressions in a timely manner and in spending the initial time to create the rig, I will now be able to quickly create future videos, saving The Oxford Group time and money.
