Why Repetition Is a Strength in Children’s Animation
Use familiar lyrics and recurring actions to create participation, confidence, and delight.

Hi-O Fishy is a children’s sing-along animation created for Baby Frog, built around bright character visuals, music-driven repetition, and playful movement. The project needed to feel simple enough for young viewers while still carrying the craft and timing of a polished animated music piece.
MattiBurns supported the piece through character-driven visual development, storyboard thinking, and final animation.
