Problem / Solution
The film required visual effects that could help convey Liv’s internal experience in a playful yet meaningful way. As part of the production team, I created three animated scenes using Adobe After Effects that visually represented key moments in the story. These motion graphics helped enhance the narrative and add a surreal element to the film’s portrayal of mental health.
