Wyatt Cenac's Problem Areas
Client: HBO I worked as part of a team of 3 Motion Designers on the graphics heavy comedy/investigative news show “Wyatt Cenac’s Problem Areas.” Below is a selection of some of the work I created during the 2 seasons the show aired on HBO.
Tally & Shorty
MK12 created the show opener and overall visual identity of the show. A major part of the identity of Problem Areas are two characters they designed called “Tally” and “Shorty.” They acted as mascots for the show and were frequently used to illustrate concepts that were discussed or as avatars to represent various people.
I took the base models of these characters and added physical features and backgrounds as needed for each scenario, and then animated them based on the script and feedback.
