SumnerOne needed a character-led animation that could introduce Squido as more than a mascot. The project had to create personality, story, and visual charm while still serving a branded communication goal.

MattiBurns created the Squido world through character design, storyboard development, illustration, and animation. The process gave the character expressive range and a clear origin-story structure before moving into final motion.

The final animation gave SumnerOne a branded character story with a defined mascot, illustrated world, storyboard system, and finished animated film. Squido became a friendly visual entry point for the brand’s message.
