Thesis Film

For my thesis project, I am working on a roughly 5 minute 2D animated film titled Sundial. The film acts as a pilot episode for a larger work of the same title, in which the protagonist has frozen time as the world was being assaulted by numerous apocalyptic events. They go on dangerous missions, trying to save the world while they still have time frozen. The thesis film will focus on one of these missions the protagonist goes on, while also introducing viewers to the world and some of the characters, along with the interpersonal struggles between them.

Currently, the film is in the pre-production stage, with plans to start production by September 2025 and then to finish the film by May 2026.

I have taken advantage of some of the assignments in my Spring 2025 2D Animation class to do some visual tests for the environments and protagonist of Sundial.
