I’ve been watching a lot of animated shorts to gain more inspiration for my animation and to understand the rhythm and pacing of storytelling. I found a couple of animations that struck a chord with me but the video I linked above really hit home to the themes I want to present in my animation. The character’s childhood self being chained down by her self-destructive thoughts was such a powerful visual and storytelling element. I definitely want to incorporate an inner-child version of the character I will be basing my animation off of.
