El Dodorado, Graduation Short Film - Characters
Here are the characters I worked on for my graduation short film "El Dodorado".
Working on the dodo and the bee allowed me to explore simple yet expressive shapes that could be stretched and squashed without too much deformation.
This short, completed after over a year and a half of hard work was directed by Emilie Cayre, Dorian Condelis, Solène Corral, Brice Girardin, Ghita Hsaine, Ambre Kerbrat, Héloïse Ogez, Adrien L'habitant and myself.

Dodo beak and feather variations. It's a subtle detail, but it helped differentiate each dodo while giving them their own personnality.
