A crowd of people are driving the tandem through the magic portal inside of the marble archway.

Contribution & Impact:

Building on my earlier contributions to the studio's crowd system development for the Jersey Mike's campaign starring Danny DeVito and Eli Manning(see more), I developed custom biking animation cycles and applied them to extend the tandem bike seamlessly into the horizon.

In addition, I created the marble archway, portal, and foreground sign in CG, iterating on the assets based on client feedback to ensure it matched the original vision and approved logo design.
