An incredible fun project to work on with the team at Buck. We were asked to create a spot that captured the spirit of the Australian Open, depicting both the laid-back atmosphere and the unique personalities vying for the trophy.
Using mixed-media and animation, the spots feature dynamic and colorful vignettes designed to connect with new audiences and tennis die-hards alike. It was a lot of fun picking out the perfect live-action shot of our tennis stars and seamlessly blending them with the animation.
I had the privilege of editing the 2025 spot along with animating a few shots with the incredible talented team.
