Re:Connect

2021

Re:Connect is a short animated film about being Connected digitally but Disconnected in the real world. 

 

Digital technologies have advanced more rapidly than any innovation in our history, it changes our way of life. It paved the way for multi-functional devices like the smartwatch and the smartphone. Has also made our lives easier, faster, better, and more; but within the past decade/s, technologies have had their fair share of negative sides. While all of these tools can help us connect to others, they may also drive us apart. Technology has profoundly shifted the nature of human communication. Connected and communicating- but have become anti-social and lacking interpersonal skills. 

I was tasked to create and draw the backgrounds for this project, the backgrounds are inspired by numerous real-world locations here in the Philippines. As for the art style, it is inspired and referenced from a number of notable animated films, ranging from Makoto Shinkai's works, 'Josee, the tiger and the fish', and a work from Mateusz Urbanowicz.
