In this Instagram series, our team brought Burt — an astronaut with a surprisingly ordinary life — to the screen through playful character-driven animation set against the backdrop of space.

My Role: I joined the project during the later stages of production, where I integrated 3D renders with 2D assets to create a seamless final look. I animated text overlays and effects, refined timing and motion details, and composited shots to unify the piece. I also handled client revisions, dropped in and synced audio, and prepped the full package for delivery.

This project highlighted my ability to take ownership of finishing and polish — blending multiple media types, adapting to feedback, and ensuring the piece was launch-ready.
