Six Word Story

She was told, never grow old.

The Forest

I thought that this animation was quite confusing and therefore not as powerful as the makers probably hoped. I think that the main purpose of this animation was to show how the world has changed from then and now. However, there are different views on this topic as some would think that the world is worse now, which is the opposite message of this short film. The hidden meaning behind the animation was quite unclear and could have been made more simply, which I think would come across more meaningful and overall more understandable.

I used a circle as my starting shape and slowly transformed it into something more abstract. I did this by inserting key frames into various points of my animation, making the shape automatically transform into the next frame. I then experimented with stretching the shape and varied the use of colour, to make the effect more interesting and unique.
