Director Statement

Our short animatic by the name of AIA was originally supposed to be a short film, but due to COVID-19 we couldn't film it the way we had planned. So as an alternative we decided to make AIA into an animatic, we recorded all dialogues and used our original movie score to give it the feel of a short film. We hope that through this animatic the spirit of the film and the hard work we put in it shows through. After all, it is all about telling a good story, regardless of the medium, and we are confident that out story will resound with many people out there.
