Clip reel from Adult Swim’s Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law
A series of Choice Clips from whole segments of shots I animated for Cartoon Network’s Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law. Total animation quota for Harvey was 20-30 finished seconds per week. The animation was timed for 2s and drawn frame by frame using Adobe Flash as a 2D digital light table. The experience on this series allowed me to develop a snappier sense of timing and work with full pose to pose animation on human forms.
