Gorillaz - Busted & Blue Fan Music Video

Here's my fully fan-made music video for the Gorillaz song, Busted & Blue I created back in 2019! I fell in love with the Gorillaz style a couple years prior, and really wanted to try my hand at making an original music video while trying to nail their particular brand of 2D/3D interaction, melancholy, and imagery.
Creating this video really gave me a taste and passion for multimedia productions and music videos where the line between 2D and 3D disciplines are blurred.
All assets other than miscellaneous 3D textures were all created by me in the space of around a month. I used OpenToonz for all of the 2D animation, Procreate for Storyboarding, Blender for the 3D and initial 2D asset placement, and After Effects for final Compositing.
