Independent Animated Short - WIP
Currently in production. This 2-minute short started as my solo film project for my 3rd year at SVA.
Synopsis: In an astrophysics lab, a strict scientist and her bold young coworker clash over their work's importance. The argument escalates until a miniature star breaks free, forcing them to gain some perspective.
I wanted to experiment further with combining 2D characters with 3D props and environments; I really wanted to take advantage of what both mediums are best at doing.
Expressive character animation and explosive hand-drawn effects could be scaled and rearranged with power of 3D software, so I spent time thinking about how I'd compose those scenes using all of my tools.
This film is planned to be completed during the summer of 2026.
