QuikTrip | World of Options
This project was a collaboration between 2D and cel animators, incorporating some 3D elements. I was tasked with creating the flowing bubbles and seamlessly integrating them into the animation. As the animation nears its conclusion, the character transitions back from the vibrant beverage world to reality using a straw, with a satisfied expression on his face. Additionally, I made an end card showcasing cascading water columns, enriching the visuals with an organic flow inspired by cel animation.
I animated the organic flowing bubbles using particles, integrating them with the shots created by other animators. This process ensured that the bubbles appeared cohesive and immersive within the overall animation. By closely adjusting the speed, size, and behavior, the bubbles achieved a natural and fluid motion that enhanced the visual appeal of each scene.
The character takes a sip of their drink, returning to the real world with a contented expression on their face.
The end card imitates the powerful streams of a fountain drink machine, flooding the screen with an organic animation style that complements earlier scenes.
