Why Am I Stressed? - Senior Thesis
2018
For my senior thesis at Ringling College of Art and Design, this piece reflects on my own personal experiences in feeling isolated, stressed, and judging myself too much. However, I bring up the things in my life that give me joy and comfort despite the anxiety, such as friends and family, music, and traveling. The animation was created with multiple drawings done in Photoshop that were then animated in After Effects to give a roughness to the motion and design. The story was written with a script first and I narrated the voice-over with background noise to give it a conversational feel. Sound designer Kelly Warner (soundmural.tv) assisted me in putting together the audio.
