a collaborative animation mockumentary, following (1st Semester) foundation students as they imagine and stage their own mock battles with the paranormal on campus. The project took them 4 weeks to make. 80 Students worked on this project.
WORLDBUILDING
Each student received an envelope containing a map of campus, stickers of their majors, a postcard and a letter to guide the world-building for their film. It was intended as a mandatory prop for students to use, so that when all the scenes were edited together, the audience would recognize they exist within the same world. Students were free to interact with the envelope and its contents in any way they chose, as long as it was incorporated into the story. By the end of the final project, each student produced a storyline and a short rotoscope animation.

STILLS
Students filmed using their phones, then converted the footage into images, printed them, illustrated over the prints, scanned them, and edited the results on Premiere pro to create their own 30–50 second scene. The scenes created by students is compiled and edited by me to form a single, unified film, to be submitted to festivals.
