Framestore New York had a packed house of animators due to a bunch of Geico spots and a certain Netflix show.  To have that many animators together in one spot from back in the day and fresh out of college was some sort of vfx family reunion. 

​

My role on Geico was prETT...ty small.  Considering how many animators we had and it was my first time with the Gecko, it was a good chance for me to ease in to the campaign. 
 

The team has really systematized the Gecko since they've worked with him so many years -- specifically loved the tool to easily set reference footage in the camera and move it around (as the show highly relies on acting reference).

I assume it's a given, but I love when the spot you work on gets laughs.  No Talking is super funny.

^^ For any young animator who happens upon this, I've been animating for 22+ years and was given the two TINY shots where he barely appears on the table.  ;)​
