Tennisables 2024
The LTA Tennisables
Project Type : Animation
Year : 2024
Last year, we were tasked with creating and animating the lovable Tennisables characters for the LTA. This year, we took it a step further and created Tennisables in an exciting, interactive way to help kids learn tennis skills in a fun and musical format.
We were provided with a specially written rap that encourages children to sing, dance, and follow along, with each lyric and move focused on teaching a specific tennis skill, or “tekker.” The project involved a live-action shoot with kids in a green screen studio, where they performed the rap and tennis moves. We then animated the Tennisables characters to perform alongside the children.
We were super excited to be apart of this project that brings tennis skills to life in a way that’s fun and accessible for kids, encouraging them to get involved and learn through music and movement.
