Another concept that came from that Spark Session was putting animation on the potter's wheel and on the pots themselves. It was so simple, we were surprised no one else had done it before. (Props to Kevin Parry and Tee Ken Ng for inspiration.) That was, until we put dozens of hours into researching zoetropes, photoshopping frames of animation, and figuring out how the heck to measure the circumference of a handmade pot. 

It was literally down to the minute to get these pots done in time for shooting. There's nothing like a looming deadline to keep you humble, but the video turned out way cooler than we could have hoped. Thank you to Ryan McQuade for the stellar animations!
