My first official short film!!! This concludes my freshmen year as an animation student in college! It sure has been a journey, and this is only the start!
I was inspired to create this story based on my own life experiences in friendship cliques growing up. I've always had friendship be the strongest theme in my original concept The Jewel Sisters, and so I used this film as a little prequel teaser to the story. It all began with these girls welcoming others to play with them and the rest is history!
