The final animation for the project. Still needs a little work but only small touch up. My show reel with both the piggy and choo choo bar advert

Animation test for final advert

These are test of the characters and other animation put together in premiere pro. Some of the close up make the animation blocky. Not to sure why that is but may try to resize the animation and see if that work. It could also be to do with the keying out of the background when fitting the character animation into the train and background.



Long shot test of character with train and background.

Animatics test

The animatic for the final animation of the choo choo bar. The train robbery idea that I wasn't overly happy with it. The story wasn't great the camera angles weren't dramatic, there wasn't really any product shots. This wasn't an idea that I wanted to do, more an idea I had to do.



This was one of the story board ideas I did for the choo choo bar. I was trying to play on the rivalry between England and Australia as choo choo bar are from Australia. It wasn't ideal for children as they would understand that rivalry. It did get a laugh when we show our ideas at the groups showing.

Looking at character design

New research

This is so good for kids. It's also got the choo-choo in the song. We could easily use this concept with a similar style and song





The product placement in this being the wheels is a nice and creative touch. Using the choo-choo bar as coal to power the engine with vibrant colours coming of the stream pipe.

This is funny and could so easily be done for kid with the substitute the cool light for choo-choo bar.

New research

So starting off again with the advert for choo-choo bar.


Found this out of no where, an ad that is just mad. It's got more going on than probably is needed but I really fancy a crunchie

This is fun with a nice easy to understand song and colourful visuals. The idea of the crocodile trying to steal everyone favourite breakfast could create the idea of how cool this breakfast is.

This start off slow but had laughing at the end. A little too much for kid but keeping it simple and funny is always best with only 30 second of air time.



This is a nice style for the animation with the train almost being alive itself. Maybe have the train inter act with the characters from the choo-choo bar.

This is shit. Still with this and the porky pig animation for visual styling and taking the humour could work.

These aren't probably ideal for kid but looking at how Aussie tra

spree research
