Happy Vaisakhi

Here's some frames from an animation I recently completed for our upcoming Vaisakhi Parade coverage at channel m. Vaisakhi is a harvest festival celebrating the coming of Spring throughout much of India. It is also a day that Sikhs celebrate the day they acquired their identity.

In the past, we relied fairly heavily on footage of past parades for our graphics. This year, we used more symbols of the spring harvest - flowers, trees, wheat, birds, butterflies, blossoms, etc. The intent was to make the animation celebratory yet traditional.

You can find out more about Vaisakhi here.
