BRAKE - SCAD Student Film 2021

BRAKE is a hybrid animated short film about Linx, a meek individual, and his service dog Atlas. One day, a simple bus trip is made more complicated for the pair when an unsavory character arrives. His behavior pushes Linx to his breaking point and the stress finally overwhelms him. Can Atlas bring him back from this downward spiral before it’s too late?
BRAKE is a mix of 3D graphics and 2D hand-drawn animation using Maya and Toonboom Harmony. It was produced with a fully remote team that went hybrid/remote in the last three months of production.
Our crew is a group of talented SCAD senior animation and sound design majors- their hard work and dedication through 2020 and 2021 have made the project possible.
Thank you so much for watching our film!
