This Diploma project is an experimental film that intersects the elements of 2D animation and real space, it plays with dimensional transitions and shows the struggles of production alongside the “typical“ story that plays out. Throughout this process, he brought his personal project into his practice, by placing two main characters from his comic within the movie set and getting them to interact not only with their own space but with our reality as well.
As a designer, Kenny wanted to punctuate the creative process through simple means. The structures of the buildings have a lot of flaws, this is due to the fact that everything is cut, painted and glued by hand. He wanted these flaws to not only emphasize how messy and chaotic the process of creation really is but to highlight the old aesthetic of the neighbourhood. The grunge texture corrodes the city, and its lack of everyday objects leaves it empty. The set also has its own outdoor movie theatre, where his film is projected, that way both 2D and 3D worlds can enjoy the movie.
