Director Statement

Working on this film has been my most rewarding experience at SCAD. The process of developing it from a small concept to a fleshed-out hybrid of CG and 2D animation was a great team effort that gave me the opportunity to work with many talented artists who helped to make it something we could all be proud of.

I'm incredibly grateful to my amazing team for all of their hard work and dedication to the technical and creative challenges this project presented, and I'm very excited to share it.
