Orange Star

Not a lot of time to make an update those last days, I'm working on the character design of a new TV show for french TV , it's the very beginning so it takes a lot of time. And beside I'm doing a new CGI animation for my démo.

During september I've been working on a TV ad for Orange at Wizz. I've made 2D flash and CGI animation, here is the result.
