Planters – A Nut Above2D Motion2021
As part of the team at Buck, I contributed animation for “A Nut Above,” a campaign by Planters that celebrated extraordinary acts while unveiling Mr. Peanut's return during the Super Bowl. Through cinematic storytelling and modern design, we brought this beloved character back to life, blending bold graphics and smooth transitions for a fresh take on a classic figure.
