I began with loose scribbles in Procreate to sketch out the initial idea, then created a detailed storyboard in Photoshop. Most of the animation was done frame by frame in Photoshop to get that hand-drawn, cartoon feel. I then used After Effects for compositing, camera moves, and final touches.
Here you can see how I transformed the initial scribble into a storyboard. This version was later revised during feedback rounds and the animation production phase, where I added additional scenes to better synchronize the visuals with the music track and ensure a smoother flow.
