  • Опубликовано: 9 окт 2020
  • It's been a long time coming! The public upload of my team's SCAD 2020 senior animation capstone project (and bronze finalist!), directed by Devon Palmer and Helen Prekker.
    Created by Devon Palmer, Helen Prekker, Donald Brooks, Morgan Camp, Sarah Mydland, Tessa Kelley, Cole Roberts, Miranda Bernheim, Madeleine Williams, Delanna Poiencot, Christina Montellano, Wesley Tsang, and Casey Falcone.
    Audio by Nathan Lienau, Clifton Kadanec, Nate Vrana, and Devon Palmer.
    Synopsis: Hallie, a worm living in the Cambrian sea, struggles to find a balance between the survivalist life she is forced to live and the emotional connections she desires.
    Much love and well wishes to my whole crew, who finished this film off in the throes of the pandemic despite everything! Every one of you is an incredible artist, and I'm lucky to have gotten the privilege to work with you.
