Director Biography - Camille Bertrand-Morel, Veronica Tsui, Natalie Yiu

Camille, Veronica and Natalie currently study animation at Seneca College. Their first short animated film, <i>Adult Children</i>, was created over the summer of 2015 as part of the Reel Asian Film Festival's <i>Unsung Voices Youth Video Production Workshop</i>. Starting from a story written by Camille, this group of animation students (which also included the talents of Layout Artist Shiladitya Bose, Character Designers Olivia Hamza and Valentina Velieva, and Animators Nathan Chin and Kai Po Wang) combined their passions for storytelling and animation with a compelling story of childhood neglect in order to create this short animation that became their summer labour of love. For these aspiring art and animation professionals, the process of creating a film for a festival was a very enlightening experience that has empowered them to pursue filmmaking in the future.
