A young blind adult is having a hard time sustaining a relationship because all his girlfriends die.
A Cloud Holding A Knife is a 9 minute collage animation film which pushes layers beyond surface level to achieve a deeper meaning in every frame. Our goal was to create a visually interesting film which told just as much of a story through the visuals as through narration. In my role, I helped decide what visuals would be on screen at any given moment and was given full creative control over my assigned shots.

Working on this project gave me greater insight into how teams collaborate and stay organized on larger projects. I am proud of the success of the film and excited about where it will take me next.
