Experiencing Interruptions?

Being Good

BEING GOOD is about identity and understanding the concepts of right and wrong. It's not only a short film, but also a proof of concept for a full feature film.

Our story is about a teenage girl named Embry and her two guardians, the angel Ava and the demon Mal who act as her conscience.

While Ava and Mal could easily be considered as “good” and “evil”, the film develops the idea of their humanity and flaws. We often have prefabricated views based on our upbringing and our aim is to challenge and question those preconceptions.

Director Statement

"Being Good" is a very personal project for me and my first animated film as a director. I have gathered over 50 volunteers (from Macguff, ILM, Disney, Dreamworks, Sony etc) to join me in making this film and we are excited to present it at several festivals in the future.
