OK K.O.! Lakewood Plaza Turbo
Art Direction, Backgrounds and Compositing
Science Saru - 2015
I was lucky enough to work on this OK K.O short for Cartoon Network, from Science Saru's studios.
I did the pre-prod/art direction work based on the original designs of the first pilot, then painted all the backgrounds and also did all the compositing work.
