A little background information...
One day, the four friends Melvin, Kico, Poko and Skip decided to create their own universe; a blank canvas ready to fill with creativity and joy. This is where the story of Giri Guru begins.
Creating and telling stories is something that everyone in our team is passionate about. We all have a strong desire to work with like-minded people, so when I suggested that we take it a step further, it was only natural that we formed a company together to turn our dreams into a reality.
Having studied degrees in art, animation and storytelling, we were confident that we could create something truly special together. That special something is Giri Guru.
How was the film made?
It’s animated in Maya, textured in Photoshop and comped in After Effects.
