thenakedandfamous: It was important for me to work with Asian female animators to bring the emotional narrative to life - someone who understood the history of the southeast Asian culture I come from, and the story behind my family as refugees. Their journey to find safety was rife with trauma, and my mother wasn't able to see her children grow up. @hey_eva and @steffieyee understood my story and how we could incorporate it into the video. Originally we were going to have the initial text (at the beginning of the video) in red - they pointed out this is considered bad luck in some southeast Asian cultures. Also, they both have exceptional taste!
