Blackthorne

To create the animations for this game, I video taped one of our programmers, Frank Pearce, jumping and climbing all over a playground at the local park. For reference, I handled the lead character animation, most of the background artwork and interface, logo design.

Trivia: Blackthorne started out as a character with Long Brown hair, then one of the designers at Blizzard insisted he HAD to have a crew cut, and only after I had gone thru all the frames and given him a Buzz haircut, changed his mind and said it would be cooler if he had long hair.
