We The People "Active Citizenship"
Directed by BUCK

Made in collaboration with the Obamas, Peter Ramsey, H.E.R and Netflix, “Active Citizenship” is the first episode in a Schoolhouse Rock-inspired musical anthology series from Chris Nee and Kenya Barris entitled We The People that aims to give a civics crash course to a nation that thinks the filibuster is a topping at Cinnabon. At the first annual Children’s and Family Emmy award show in 2022, the series took home a statue for Outstanding Short Form Program.
This story highlights the importance of active citizenship in order to create positive change in our communities. Powered by a groovy H.E.R soundtrack, the visual
style is an abstract representation of collective power, shared values, and inalienable rights.
My role on this massive project was 2D cel animator & AE animator,
I touched on a wide range of animation needs including character animator,
psychedelic animation cleanup artist and also AE animator occasionally.
