“Longing”
Written and Animated by Isti
Score by Ryle Ugarte (@elixiryle // @magicpilgrim )
Sharing this stop motion short I made for my experimental animation finals 💚 The prompt was “longing for” so I apologise if it gets cheesily sentimental 😭 Genuinely enjoyed every moment of this class and kinda sad that it had to end. But that won’t stop me from experimenting more with my art and with my newfound love for this craft.
This is dedicated to my friends, family, and everyone who’s been feeling the same way. I hope you find your way back to the warmth you’ve been longing for ☀️
Stay safe and take care! 🌿
