36 x 11min - 3 series |
The Cuphead Show is a 3 series animated show, based on the characters from the computer game, produced at Lighthouse Studios for Netflix Animation.
Technical info: Harmony 2D rigging animation, FX and Compositing including hand drawn animation, FX and lighting with Photoshop environments/locations. My role: (additional Director info also available here) As Assistant Director I oversaw a team of 100+ crew and was responsible for QC check and sign off of all episodes leaving Lighthouse on schedule and meeting expectations of Netflix Animation. I regularly met with the Series Executives, Supervising Directors, Art Director and the production team at Netflix to discuss how Lighthouse would technically implement some of the creatively challenging aspects of the show - trying to make a cut-out animation software like Harmony replicate hand drawn and cell painted rubberhose animation from the 30's was a huge undertaking in itself. As well as ensuring client notes and feedback were implemented I was responsible for giving notes and feedback to crew and worked with Lighthouse management and production to ensure we hit series milestones, delivery deadlines and managed the series resources and crew wellbeing as best we could.
