the brief
Bruce is a short film centered around Martin – a recently divorced father who decides to convince his son Liam that he is the reincarnation of Bruce Lee. The film’s creators, Adam Etheridge and David Watson needed a way to bring the Martial Arts legend back to the screen – and what better way to do this than with hand-drawn animation.
our process
The main scene for us to tackle, showcased protagonist Martin, channeling the spirit of Bruce Lee as his own reflection in a mirror.
We went with a detailed hand-drawn animation style to give a consistent look across all the assets we produced; including animations, comic book pages and illustrations.
Bruce Lee – brought back to the screen through the magic of animation!
