Road Trip

Client Self-initiated
Role Director, Designer, Animator
Disciplines Animation, Illustration

A self-initiated animated short about a girl and her dog on a quiet journey through imagined landscapes. Inspired by the dreamlike scenery of ’80s–’90s anime, the piece was designed and cel-animated in Procreate, with additional animation and compositing in After Effects.

Created over two and a half months, Road Trip became a meditative escape to make. Alongside the final film, I shared a series of four behind-the-scenes videos that break down my animation process step by step. Together, the short and process videos have reached over 2 million views on Instagram, offering viewers a brief, peaceful pause in their scroll.
