Скачать или смотреть SOLILOQUY [Animated Short Film]

"In fearing the unknown and what we perceive to be finality, we overlook the beauty in the next life. What stories do the remains tell?"

A story aiming to challenge the taboos surrounding death and its connotations. What exactly is it that we see? What do we fear about the unknown? Soliloquy takes the viewer through the life cycle of a creature that once was, shedding light into the world that exists beyond the one we know; the life after death.

So, here's my final film from my second year at university! This is my first full length animation that isn't a music video. It's also the first thing I've worked on with another person ... I guess those years of taking part in Multi Animator Projects paid off in the end.

Our task was to create a film inspired by one of our favourite exhibitions in the city's museum. In particular, I was inspired by a display that was a mix of a paper mache environment and taxidermy (it's not as grim as it sounds!). We were split off into teams and I was lucky enough to be able to work with one of my lovely friends, NE0NDREAMS. They're only just beginning to delve into animation and such - I'm super proud of the work we've done together! All of the post production was done in just under two weeks so we didn't have much time to sit and polish things to absolute perfection.

Either way, I'm super proud of this and I hope you guys like it as much as we do! Enjoy!
