"Reinvent Yourself" poem by Charles Bukowski

"ALL GROWN UPS WERE ONCE CHILDREN" - ANIMATION

Illustrations made for a short animation describing the friendship between a toy and a young guy.

The toy character is a metaphorical representation of our inner child.

 

This story is entirely created by myself where the toy is the narrator:

​

"YOU CHOSE ME AS YOUR FRIEND, YOU TOOK ME WHEREVER YOU WOULD GO, WE ENJOYED PLAYING GAMES ALL DAY, I PROTECTED YOU FROM DANGER, BUT...TIME PASSED AND AT THE END YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN ME"

​

The components of the animation are vector based illustrations created using Adobe Illustrator.

 I tried to create harmonius images using analogous colours with a spark of contrast.
