VIS DEV | BACKGROUND | ANIMATION

Pre-production and production work I did for our Gobelins MA film.

I came up with the initial concept of the film after discussing with my team about some of our shared feelings that come with moving away and having to find a new sense of home and belonging. This has been a subject I wanted to explore ever since I moved abroad by myself in 2018 and experienced this very specific kind of loss that I never even considered before. The story took many different turns and shapes throughout our writing process, which lead to us focusing on rejection specifically. As this is a short film, I feel like there are still many things left that I'd like to say on the subject. I hope I'll get a chance to revisit it someday in the future, but for now I am happy to have been able to make this film with my teammates.
