Coming To Light - SVA Animated Film

A deep-sea mermaid has a unique fascination for the surface, so she creates a submarine that is suitable for the surface despite her friend's wishes.
This is my third-year animation film at the School of Visual Arts. I probably had the shortest amount of time to work on this short film compared to my previous ones, but I'm still happy with how it came out. It took me about 5 months to create and I finished it about 2-3 months ago. Thank you so much for the support from my previous film, Seeing Things in Black and White! I am currently working on my next film now, so please look forward to it!
