America: The Motion Picture
A chainsaw-wielding George Washington teams with beer-loving bro Sam Adams to take down the Brits in a tongue-in-cheek riff on the American Revolution. - Netflix
Like most animated projects at Floyd, there was a need to create high quality animation rigs for our main cast of characters. George Washington, Sam Adams, Thomas Edison, etc. all made use of a custom built head setup that allowed animators to create custom expressions with ease.

Oversaw the building and implementation of all character rigging in Toon Boom Harmony. Set standards of procedure based on the needs of the Animation Director.
In Motion
Here is what we were able to accomplish. We put our heads together and figured out what would empower the Animation Team to put their best foot forward when working with the main cast. Along with the help of our Supervising Technical Director, we were able to improve the usability and expand the functionality of Toon Boom’s Master Controller feature.
