Sage's Song (Pumpkinheads™) Animated Book Trailer

I had the fun opportunity to animate this trailer for an awesome children's book called "Sage's Song".

"Sage's Song" is part of the Pumpkinheads™ children's book series. If you have young children, check out the books here. You can also view more videos and trailers here.

I received Adobe Illustrator artwork created for the book by illustrator & animator Matthew Wilson and creator & author Karen Kilpatrick. I used a combination of Flash, After Effects and Blender 3d to animate the art.

I did some minor editing, no animation from me (other than the end screen), on the trailer for "Ella's Toys":
