For the past eight years, I have been watching 30 Rock on repeat.
It did not dawn on me to use this as my subject until much later, but truly, what better topic to choose for a project that I have to stare at for weeks on end? In addition to the GIFs, I have still samples, as well as a few I left unanimated.
It is my humble opinion that 30 Rock is the greatest comedy to ever grace our cable screens. I hope I did some justice on these animations, for we desperately need more ways to communicate Liz Lemon style.
For this project, I hand drew each sketch, vectorized them in Illustrator and animated them in After Effects. To save them as GIF files, I imported them into Photoshop as MOVs. I could not have done this without the help of my wonderful and dedicated classmates and teacher.
Please enjoy!

Just Jack Donaghy's big head


A quote from Liz Lemon after making her entire TV crew angry.

Who says you can't dress like Princess Leia on your wedding day?

"Sabor de Soledad"... The Flavor of Sadness

A Tracy Jordan quote for encouragement. Take this, run with it, interpret it as you see fit.

A Tracy song fitting for any Halloween party!

Another sad attempt to comfort an unwell friend. Who needs human contact when you have brooms?

The whole thing. We're done here.
