ANIMATIONS

When Jack was a freshman in high school, he began working on animations. These videos were made using a variety of software, including two-dimensional flash programs and three-dimensional CGI. Jack taught himself to use these programs all on his own. Jack particiularly liked to blend the animations with live-action, bringing the cartoons into the real world. These cartoons would be featured on the school’s morning announcements. Jack took inspiration from a variety of places when creating his cartoons, such as Looney Tunes, Disney, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network.
