I had the wonderful chance of starting this year with 2 projects, both being short films. The first one being a Hybrid 2D/3D Shortfilm titled “Submersed”, where I have joined as the Producer and Visual Development artist. I’ve had a wonderful time stepping up my creature design work, and getting back into being a producer. This time, for a much larger project. It has been a lot of work, but it has been a wonderful experience meeting people from other schools and the industry. I’ve learned a lot, and I hope that we produce something amazing.
The second film was Primogeniture, I have joined it for my senior capstone. It has also been a very long, hard, but enjoyable film. As we wrap up pre-production, I look forward into moving into production and help with painting layouts.
Lastly, before the quarter wraps up, I had the chance to attend a film festival event at SCAD where many amazing directors attended. While I didn’t get to take any photos with them, I gained a lot of valuable incite into their journey in the industry, where they take inspiration from, and their opinions on animation. They reassured everyone about how everyone’s journey to get into the industry was different, and gave more feedback about how projects go, how to collaborate, and to not worry. This was all incredibly important insight for all the projects I’m currently on.
