“After his alcoholic father's death, a young man decides to sell the last memory of him - his taxi.”

This 2D Animation short was my graduation film in 2020. No 3D software was used in the making of this short film. Everything was digitally drawn, animated and painted. My thesis focused on the use of perspective grids to emulate camera movements and rotations in 2D. I figured I never did uploaded it to my own channel so here you go!

For the story, it is entirely fictional. But after some self-analysis I realized I probably came up with this story because of real events in my life, in a sort of “what if” version of how things could’ve happened.

I created this film with lots of love for the craft that we do, and I really hope you enjoy it!
