As a motion designer specializing in 2D animation, I often face the challenge of telling compelling stories while working within project constraints. My latest project for Lucky Car, a company specializing in windshield chip repair, was no exception. The task? Create an engaging and memorable animated ad—without using human characters.



The Challenge: Storytelling Without Human Characters

Since the budget didn’t allow for character animation, I had to find a creative way to bring the story to life. Instead of human protagonists, I focused on the car and the little stone itself as the main character. This approach not only made the animation more unique but also added an element of fun and relatability.


Concept & Storytelling Approach

The animation follows a simple yet engaging narrative:

  • A car happily drives along when suddenly a small stone hits the windshield, causing a chip.

  • The chip becomes a growing problem, visually exaggerated to emphasize the urgency of repair.

  • Lucky Car comes to the rescue, effortlessly repairing the windshield and restoring the car’s "happiness."

  • The animation ends with a clear Call-to-Action: "Book an Appointment", encouraging viewers to take action.


Design & Animation Style

I followed a clean, cartoon-style 2D animation, making the visuals:

✅ Simple & engaging – perfect for quick communication.

✅ Bright & friendly – reinforcing Lucky Car’s approachable brand identity.

✅ Smooth & dynamic – ensuring an enjoyable viewing experience.



Outcome & Impact

The final animation successfully delivered the message in a fun and effective way, proving that even without human characters, storytelling can be engaging, emotional, and action-driven.


Final Thoughts: Simplicity as a Strength

This project reinforced an important lesson: limitations spark creativity. By focusing on strong visual storytelling, I was able to turn a simple repair service into a fun and memorable animation.
