Director's Statement: This 4 minutes CGI short film is my thesis project at USC. It took me 8 months from thumbnails to final delivery. I was responsible for direction, design, modeling, texturing, lighting, animation, compositing and editing. It was a memorable process. In this piece I try to use visual aesthetics to build up a narrative: the remnants of loss and war.

Thumbnails

Early stage style frames
