 | "The life of a scarecrow changes when he decides to become friends with the birds"
This short film has been internationally acclaimed and received numerous awards since its premiere (including a pre selection to the Oscars)
This is not the final cut that was released, voices and music are not the final versions.
I was in charge of the creation and design of the characters and backgrounds, the storyboarding, the animation directing and the editing.
It was made mixing 2D backgrounds with 3D modeling into a false 3D environment in After Effects.
