My animation short “The Earth’s Core” is a tale for
all ages. It is a fable based on a simple fantasy idea.
It is a story about an apple collector that needs to
feed a creature inside the Earth in order to keep the
world rotating.The subject matter is used to highlight
our diminishing natural resources. In my animation the
apple collector doesn’t treasure his cargo, because of
this the apples are wasted and the natural balance is
harmed.
This story is very personal to me because I wrote the
script and spent a year working on this piece. I have
chosen 2D animation because I enjoy drawing, coloring
and combining mix media in post-production.
I have experience working in a group project, producing
the award winning short “The Happy Duckling” and this
gave me the confidence to manage my graduation
film by myself.
During the production, I collaborated with 3 students
and worked closely with my sound composer to
complete this project.
