AniJam 48 hour Short Film

Collaborating with two other artists and storytellers, Christopher Blower and Owen Hayward, we attended the London heat of the UK's first AniJam 48 hour challenge.

(A still from 'Together Beyond')

Using the theme of "Together" as a guideline, the narrative fell into a love story between two characters who never actually meet. Though it was a tragic narrative, the moral of the story is somewhat positive and felt personal to each of us; "life goes on".

Meeting the deadline was a success and stressfully exhilarating. Having been under pressure it tested our creative thinking of what was necessary and realistic for the time we had.

Now with our first collaborative project finished, the future of more content is indefinite. Plans for a dark comedy short, a stop motion horror and even more hybrid animation is already underway.

I myself have another short, exploring the tools of making a 2D animation stand out and encompass a charm of it's own; which has already started development.
