Capstone Film Project 2019 AUT DIGD702 Studio VI Visual Effects Assignment

A young artist finds himself under pressure to impress a crowd.

“This piece I worked on all year long, I dedicate to my fellow creatives. At its core, ‘Please Me’ portrays underlying themes of identity crisis, focusing on the extent of society's effects and influences on one’s own sense of purpose.”

Exhibited and screened alongside third year Digital Design capstone film projects at AUT's Art and Design festival held in November, and won the Visual Effects Award 2019.
