At Moore College of Art and Design we get the opportunity to complete a UELO (Unique Experiential Learning Opportunity) over the 3 month summer term after our junior year. For my UELO I reached out to Moore alumnus Cassandra Silverman to give me advice and critique with my goal of creating a rough animated short.
Below is the final result of that work, followed by some of my process.
One of the main goals for the project was to use the audio from pre-existing scene and reinterpret the story to fit my own goals. In this case I used an audio from BBC's Doctor Who, and decided to create a scene where a father and son have to make a difficult decision in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.
