JERICH0- VFX Short Film

Creating our film

In 12 weeks, we had to get from concept to final comp/renders. With the help of my co-writer/director Aaron Hopwood, we stuck to a simple story of friendship and perseverance. A talented team of modellers, headed up by Piraveen Satkunam and Callum Walters made the models, including the Lizard and robot friend. Every 3D asset used in the film was built by the team. The live plates were even filmed in our producers apartment!

We were extremely lucky to be able to work with composer Alexandra Harwood, who made the music which brings our film to life.

'JERICH0' has recently been shortlisted for the BAFTA student film awards, in the 'Best Student animation' category.

This short was such a huge collaborative effort- and it wouldn’t exist if not for the love and passion shown from each team member. I am so proud to have worked with them all, and we are humbled by the success our little lizard has had so far.
