“Wild Words” is a fun musical series on Noggin that teaches young kids new and interesting words. I had the opportunity to lead a team of talented animators on 5 episodes, "Fancy", "Leader", "Ridiculous", "Vehicle", and "Yet". My other responsibilities included storyboarding, compositing, and After Effects animation.
Check out a few example episodes, but be warned, these songs may be stuck in your head for a very long time. The full series can be found on the Noggin app.
