Soy guanaco no llama

guanaco-no-llama-banner
Animation

This is the story of a Guanaco who is always mistaken for his popular cousin, the Llama.

I wanted to create something simple as a personal animation project, and this short animation was the result. Quick humor is key to making videos go viral on social media, so crafting a short yet funny story is a must!

Character-Studies

These are the different versións I explored to design the character. 

Character Turn Around

This is the complete character design, showcasing the mascot from every angle.

A character sheet serves as a vital reference for animation, ensuring consistency in movement and proportions. In this case, since I already had the storyboard, I knew I would primarily be using the front and side views, making a full turnaround technically unnecessary for the project.

However, I created it as an exercise—to demonstrate the character sheet process and showcase how a turnaround is developed. It adds depth to the design and serves as a useful reference for future adaptations.
