Animation Documentary | Genre: Social Issue | Length: 6:30 min

Co-director/ Animator/ Concept artist

In September 2024, me and the group of directors from the Re:Anima Joint Master Program traveled to Vila Nova de Milfontes in southern Portugal, where we spent a week recording interviews with the immigrant community in the region. After that, we moved on to Montemor-o-Novo, another city in the south, where we stayed in an artist residency organized by the studio Stórias em Movimento to start producing an animated documentary based on the recorded audios.

Even though we were divided into groups to focus on different parts of the production, the collaboration stayed very open and fluid. We were constantly helping each other across areas like sound design, character design, and animation. For example, the two GIFs I included here were created together with Tommaso Zerbi, where we shared the work of animating, designing, and coloring.

Animation Music video | Length : 2:30 min

This project was a collaboration with a singer on a music video highlighting themes of women’s rights and resilience. We approached the subject poetically, using symbols and metaphors to convey its message. The animation combines 2D frame-by-frame techniques with rotoscoping from real footage.
