CGI Animated Short Film "Soar" by Alyce Tzue | CGMeetup

CGI 3D Animated SOAR Short Film by Alyce Tzue. Featured on www.cgmeetup.net/home/soar/
A cross between Miyazaki and Pixar, SOAR is an award-winning 3D animated movie about a young girl who must help a tiny boy pilot fly home before it's too late.
Soar was created as Alyce Tzue's thesis project in school. What began as a toil of love by first-time filmmakers ended up catching the eyes of festivals all over the world. Soar is the proud 2015 Gold Winner of the 42nd Student Oscars, Best Student Animation Winner at Palm Springs, Finalist at the Student BAFTAs, and has screened in the Hamptons, St. Louis, Seoul, Austin, and more.
The Soar team is beyond grateful for your support. We believe the film's surprise success is proof of its message: when you put in everything you've got, sometimes you achieve more than you ever expected.
There are plans to make Soar into a feature length film inspired by the sensibilities of Hayao Miyazaki and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince.

I think this story shows that sometimes our skills and intelligence are not enough to achieve our dreams, but when we use these to achieve somebody else's dreams unconditionally (or collaborate with others), our dreams also come true in a different and more beautiful way.

1: The girl was passionate and tried! 2: she was not sure about her idea 3: she tried helping the boy and some how helped her self💖😌 4: she didn't stop trying cause she found hope! 5: she saw the most beautiful results that she couldn't have seen if she gave up... 6: we all have you and down, success and failure, hope or the feeling of giving up but, finding excuses to try again is the best choice

I feel like this would be a Pixar short that shows before a Pixar movie. At my school, in English we were talking about Goals and we watched this an analyzed it to see what her goal is. And I just have to say this short is so beautifully crafted..

[@Rosie_Rosebud]

I just saw this on a commercial and I thought it was interesting and I'm so glad I took the time to look it up because it was a cute little animated short and i even got a little teary-eyed and would love it if this could become an actual movie
