Bunny Animation and Compositing
Mihir Lele
Brief
The client wanted a 10 second animated opening for a music video. The shot required me to animate a bunny singing the lyrics of the song while 'grooving' to the music. The bunny was pre designed (credits: Priyanka Paul). Once the animation was complete. I also cleaned the chroma in the shots that required the clean up.
Stage 01
The lip sync of the entire rap bit in the beginning was animated.
Stage 02
The first ear of the bunny was animated to match the head movement.
Stage 03
A part of the animation was selected for the final edit and the second ear was animated for just that part.
Stage 04
Minimal body movement was added, as per the brief.
Stage 05
The full animation along with the animation of just the bunny heads was composited on
a chroma cleaned shot and added to the final video.

Wall Art Design
I was also incharge of the design for one of the wall art design seen in the video. The brief was to include as many human bodies with animal heads in hip hop style poses, and other graffiti themed elements.
