Red’s Balloons

Red’s Balloons

A 3D animated short film about the haves and the have-nots, inspired by Pixar’s early work and the plays of Samuel Beckett, in which characters “wake up to existence” in an empty environment and attempt to make sense of their reality.

My aim was to build a film using as few elements as possible as a storytelling exercise.
