Knitted - Animated Short Film

Mars is plagued with memories of love. How can he let go of a boy who was his entire world, when sweaters were all he left behind?
It's finally finished... I never even imagined this would turn out how it did! I'm so proud of this animation, I worked hard on it over the last 5 months. This is a story I've been wanting to tell for a long time, and it helped me process my own breakup. My senior thesis project was the perfect avenue to create this story! I hope it resonates with others struggling with love, and moving on.
Created in Toon Boom Harmony, Premiere Pro, and Photoshop
Music: "Vesuvio" by Jason Kaminski (Used with permission from the artist. Thank you!)
Animated: by me, Ty Steinwachs

Love the mood setting in the beginning, damp cold rainy night. The eerie sound of a far off train is great!

Sometimes you just have to let go.

[@willowprinxe]

Check the description, it has a small synopsis of the story! :)

Hard work thought-through .. but something is bothersome about it. Not sure the emotional acknowledgment was positive.
