Wander - Student Final Film
As she explores an abandoned city, Reo the cat comes across another lone cat. She chases the cat out of curiosity but finds herself in a terrifying situation with some crows. Thankfully, the lone cat, Koko, leads Reo not only to safety, but also to the place where she feels like she belongs.
This film was my final assignment for my Classical Animation course at Vancouver Film School. We had a total of 8 months to work on our films, from original story idea to final compositing. Storyboarding, layouts, rough and final animations, and colouring and compositing each took roughly around 2 months to complete. I wanted to create a film based on my experiences with moving away from home and the isolation one feels before they find a community they fit into.
Story, music, backgrounds, character rigs and animation, and compositing were all done by me.
