As a VFX artist and animator, I had the opportunity to work on a challenging project with Funko Games - the Jurassic Park-themed jigsaw puzzle featuring Funko characters. Jurassic Park was one of the movies that inspired me to get into animation and VFX, so it was a full-circle experience to work on this piece.
The project wasn't without its challenges. The first hurdle was fighting imposter syndrome, and the next was correctly remembering how the movie scenes looked. I had to rewatch the movie just to make sure I got it right. But the end result was worth it - a beautiful puzzle featuring Funko characters in the iconic Jurassic Park world.
Working on the project taught me a lot, from figuring out how to work with large format paintings over 7K resolution to collaborating with the Funko Games team to bring the Jurassic Park world to life with Funko characters. It was a great opportunity to push myself out of my comfort zone and try new processes in digital art.
