Cold openers can be seen all over television programs. Some examples of TV shows that contain cold openers are "The Office", "Parks and Recreation", "Letter Kenny", "Rick and Morty", and "Gravity Falls". They are meant to capture a quick feeling and set the tone of an episode usually prior to the intro song. 

This cold open is written for the beginning of episode three of "The Lumberjack Universe", 'Sedonia to Cottonhood'. This explains why the characters are allowed to exist without too much introduction. This cold open is meant to ramp up in pace due to the sudden increase of intensity as more ideas are thrown at you until the climax, which reveals why the intensity was caused in the first place. This situation allows the audience to be creative triggering fear of the unknown as well as sparking sudden curiosity.

This animation was done my senior year of high school prior to having any professional knowledge about animating. It is a teaser trailer for my TV show that is meant to introduce you to the flashy world of chaos that is The Lumberjack Universe.

For this documentary on the culture of hula, I was hired to make animated credits. They were the icing on the cake for this beautiful film. I made seven different animations varying in complexity.

This animation was done as a spec commercial.
