BONGOS

BONGOS shows a father-son relationship. The son is curious, agile, and adventureous, while the father is apathetic, mourning his supposedly best years. The “real” day-to-day life of these two is 3D animated in gloomy colors. The absolute opposite is represented by the part into which the son flees in his 2D fantasy world, one that is colorful, diverse, vibrant, loud, and rhythmical—a world full of shapes and colors.

In this film I was responsible for the character design and their 3D model. Additionally, I animated the frame to frame scenes and edited them in the 3D scenes. Moreover, I helped with the storyline as well as the storyboard. Finally, I designed the poster and did the audio design.

The shortfilm was shown and nominated at the Ars Electronica festival under the category "u19 – create your world".
