Chase Olivera is a 16-year-old filmmaker and animator who loves finding new ways to create projects and entertain his audience. He started filmmaking when he was ten by creating his own after-school programs to film his original shorts. Now he has gotten into the realm of 3D animation in the past two years with programs such as Blender and Unreal Engine. He is working on making his videos better and is currently focused on comedic/family-friendly cartoons. "Beethoven vs The Bird" is his most recent work.
Hello! I have worked on this animation for a while now, modeling and animating everything from scratch using a 3D program called Blender. The concept is actually based on a true story because Beethoven actually did steal the main motif in his 5th symphony from birdsong. I am really proud of this short film and hope you enjoy it too!
