Ambitious Foundations


Without many connections or opportunities for networking, it certainly would be difficult to make a name for yourself to a degree. However, it's not entirely impossible. A project that a couple of colleagues and myself have just started is now underway. Well, at a slow pace, as we just to juggle school, work, and our personal lives. The image above is one of the initial sketches for our protagonist done by our background artist, Bernadette Gochioco.

My role in all of this will be the animation (after the art has been done) and all things post production such as video editing, audio mixing, and additional animation. In order to keep the project at a more manageable state, there are only 3 people (including myself) involved with this project.

The idea is to create a short animated film for the sake of making something personal that is not related to school. There has been no intention to monetize anything and our intent is to make everything original, even the music, as we have musically-oriented friend who is willing to compose for our project.

Interestingly enough, this concept alone has us all speculating on the idea of making this concept into a series. However, my view on this is to simply focus on just finishing this one and make it into a standalone storyline. I believe this choice is a good to play safe, in case of the possibility of any lack of reception.

Regardless, this is something I am most excited for!
