Description:


    I produced this animation as a way of proposing to my girlfriend. I assembled a team of twenty animators to assist me, including co-workers and students from my 3D character animation class at the Art Institure of California San Francisco. We were able to create approximately four and a half minutes of animation in just over three months. When it was completed, I surprised my girlfriend by bringing her to a local theater where they played the animation on the big screen in front of over 100 of our friends and family. The entire event was filmed for the television show “Perfect Proposal” on TLC.
