Final Year Project
Project Title
Tubby
Description
This project began when I started researching on the phenomenon of the imaginary friend and childhood play. The main aim of this project was to depict imaginary companions for what they are, a healthy mechanism, and to remove it from the stigma it has faced from being displayed negatively in a lot of pop culture. I also wanted this story to be a subtle narrative on motherhood, growing up and letting go. Other than this, the project also served a personal aim of mine, which was to challenge myself and test my capability to learn 2D animation and tell a compelling story through it to the best of my ability.
