Master Of Animation, Games & Interactivity

Throughout this program, I aim to develop a short film based around the concept of exploring a long distance relationship in this current day and age. 

The style will be in 2D Animation, potentially animated in TV paint and After Effects. 

Starting with my own experiences as a base, I will build on the initial concept and begin to expand outward, perhaps exploring themes related to how, during this current pandemic, many couples have been forced to become long distance when they perhaps wouldn’t have been otherwise. I could potentially take two drastically different directions for this film, one of which would focus on two characters dealing with their new found distance. 

Another direction I could take could potentially explore a  more vignette style, showcasing a multitude of characters coming to grips with the distance. 

I don’t plan on having any intensely, crazy style animation, but rather showcase this story in a minimally animated style with subtle movement and a heavy emphasis on texture.  

I would also like to explore this in a 3 act structure rather then an abstract take, however I would like to also have abstract aesthetics present visually. Some potential point of references I’ve collected can be found here:
