Disney - Donald Duck 90


We were thrilled to craft all the dynamic screen animations for Donald Duck's spectacular 90th Birthday bash!

Yes, you read that right - the legendary duck hit the big 9-0 and celebrated in style at New York's iconic Rockefeller Center. 

The task: To generate a plethora of bespoke Donald Duck graphics and animations across two enormous screens for a high-energy Bloc Party themed event. The night was headlined by none other than DJ PEE WEE, also known as Anderson .Paak, and attended by a star-studded crowd of celebrities, influencers, and Disney executives. 

Diving deep into Disney's rich animation archive, we produced over 200 original animated assets spanning 12 distinct creative themes, capturing the full journey of this beloved character. By seamlessly blending vibrant Cinema4D elements with captivating After Effects graphics, we equipped the VJ with an extensive toolkit to mix and match animations throughout the evening. 

Donald, you don't look a day over 89!
