I spent a couple months with the lovely CBS Interactive crew in SOMA for the Fantasy Football project. To give you an idea of my expertise in football, I’ll tell you this – I referred to the project as “Final Fantasy” for at least an entire week. That said, I got to learn lots of things, like the physics of a football bounce, and the differences between an NFL football and a college football (different stripes). I had a lot of fun researching, conceptualizing, storyboarding, and animating for this project.
