This beautifully animated piece for Community America tells a heroic story of hope, collective ambition and the power of rising up as a community. Artfully depicting Patrick Holmes, star of the Kansas City Chiefs, the piece is filled with movement and life, creating a visual collage of stirring moments.
Heroic story of
hope and power!
Kapwa founder Robertino Zambrano uses his trademark illustrative style to tell this heroic story of hope, collective ambition and the power of rising up as a community in this Nexus Studios and Mighty Nice production.
Carefully animated transitions full of movement and life make the piece feel like a choreographed dance of lines and flashes of colour, creating a visual collage of artful heroic moments.
The voiceover and hero portrayed is Patrick Mahomes, star of the Kansas City Chiefs, the local team to the CommunityAmerica headquarters.
This isn’t just his story though, it is the collective story of the rise of every small business owner, delivery man, parent, whose lives are all intertwined in a collective hope to build something big together as a community.
Bespoke “faux-toscope”
animation Style
Kapwa led look development and technical direction, creating a bespoke “faux-toscope” animation style which turned 3D animations into 2D rotoscope-style painterly animations using mostly procedural methods. This procedural animation style was augmented with a final manual hand-animated pass for a final signature touch by the 2D animation team.
and the most decent human beings you’ll probably ever meet…
