Chris O'Hara

Work from Seasons 1 and 2 of the Emmy and Annie award-winning Netflix show Ask the Storybots. Responsible for all 2D animation.

I designed and animated the planets from this episode of Ask the Storybots. I was awarded an Emmy for Individual Achievement in Animation for this sequence.

I was the Animation Director and Lead Designer on Gomoji, an animated-avatar app. Users could build their own avatar and their character would be inserted into hundreds of animated stickers to be used across multiple messaging apps. I established the design and animation style on the project and supervised the animation crew. The goal was to create an appealing but also efficient style to keep the user experience running smooth. The app had a major collaboration with the NFL for its Thursday Night Football schedule.

I animated and designed several sequences in the How Do Flowers Grow? episode of the Ask the Storybots. The goal was to make these shots fit appropriately with the rest of the soft, felt and wool-based stop-mo sequences in the episode. 

Responsible for Storyborads, Art Direction and Animation on the Inventors Song from Season 3 of Ask the Storybots.

I designed and animated on the Answer Song at the end of the episode How Does Night Happen? in season one of Ask the Storybots.

I was invited to create the Google Doodle for St Patricks Day. I wanted to keep a simple design and focus on having some fun animation. As the Doodles are usually viewed quite small it was important to make the idea and animation read clearly at a small scale.

Below is the final Doodle and also some other concepts that I pitched.

I supervised Design and Animation on numerous sticker packs for the GifGab app. With over 11,000 reviews the app holds a 4.8 star rating in the app store. Below are some stickers I personally designed and animated.
