These are pieces from an untitled project that I add to every now and then, I’m exploring themes of anxiety and mental health challenges with a backdrop of Minneapolis. With a touch of magic of course.
After finishing up my undergrad thesis, Bud, which covered themes of change, reunion, and closure in a rural landscape, I was eager to provide another film following characters in a familiar location. While Bud has values I felt as a student returning to my ever changing, very distant rural hometown. This project explores the small miracles I experienced acclimating to the twin cities, with it’s towering glass buildings, robust biking system, and metro transportation. Mix in a sense of overwhelming, often unwieldy energy (that we’ll call magic) that comes with anxiety disorders.
I’ll update this page sporadically as I develop more concepts. These are just a few look dev pieces to get a sense of proportions and style.
