Cut-Out Animation in Procreate. The short film was developed in the post-pandemic period and addresses the theme of accepting changes, especially those experienced after isolation. Whether these changes are physical or emotional, it takes time to recognize the magic and progress of transformations. This was a university project, carried out in the Bachelor's Degree in Animation Design - IBMR. I had a deadline of two months to produce the entire short film, from the script to the finalization. I opted for a do-it-yourself (DIY) aesthetic, incorporating artisanal elements into the process, in homage to the wave of manual work that flourished among those who, in the midst of idleness, sought new forms of expression during the pandemic.
