Finishing Touches - Student Short Film
Completed December 2016 at CSUF as my graduation project. My roles were director, writer, character and environment modeler, and lighting and compositing. This was the first big project I ever took part of. It was such a journey and I never would have finished this without the help of all my classmates, professors, friends, and family. My co-director, Sarah Weaver, and I decided to call our group "Scared of the Dark Studio" since we thought it was a fun name and much of the film was quite dark, haha. More details on all the people that worked on this film can be found in the video description on vimeo.
