Process & Collaboration

My work spanned both character setup and shot production. I created garments for the mouse characters, built their cloth simulation rigs, and used procedural workflows to extend those setups across additional character instances. From there, I adjusted simulation and rig parameters to account for character variation, movement, collisions, and the specific needs of each shot.

During shot production, I refined cloth and fur behavior, resolved intersections and deformation issues, and performed technical animation to strengthen secondary motion and character interactions. Because the characters combined humanoid performances with distinctly animal designs, I also paid close attention to maintaining believable animal qualities in their movement, fur, silhouettes, and final presentation. I iterated closely with animation, character, rigging, and technical partners before polishing and validating the final work for the production pipeline.
