The Astronaut's Whale

Art, Design, and Digital Culture, University of Pennsylvania
Supervised by Keith Fledderman, Professor

This frame animation was created in Photoshop and is based on the children's poem "The Astronaut's Whale" by Joey Barro. I was attracted to how playful the poem was and wanted to convey that playfulness in my animation through the construction of my elements. One of the parameters of this project was to use images found online and edit and piece them together to form something cohesive—no original illustrations allowed!—so I'm especially proud of how well all these elements fit together.
