“I had the chance to do a lot of cool things on this project. I contributed to concept, layout, animation, lighting and rendering. It’s a pretty daunting task to make a short film in the amount of time that was allotted to us. There are so many elements and steps that need to be taken and I was lucky enough to be a part of a team that wasn’t afraid to help out wherever help was needed. Working on this film was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had and it’s taught me so much. There have been many long nights and lots of frustration, but it never felt like work. Over the course of thirty short weeks, we’ve become a pretty close-knit crew and have pulled together to make one awesome film. Shout out to my Wander family—I couldn’t have done any of this without your support or friendship.”
