This week, we watched rough cuts of everyone’s silent short films. I was impressed with everyone’s work, especially the way that everyone took a different approach to the assignment brief. While some classmates paid homage to, or modernised the traditional silent film, others experimented in different ways. Some students even used stop motion, visual effects and even colour to communicate in their films.

I unfortunately couldn’t show anything, because of the changes of plans, and constantly having to go back to the drawing board because things weren’t working. As much as I want to actually hand in a finished product, I feel like it’s unlikely to happen. While I’d like to learn more about animation in the future, I will probably do it in my own time, when I at least have the energy for personal projects.
