The project was to create and produce a short story, that was based on a memory, something I had experienced. I had to think back to a time when I was between 13 and 20 years old. For most people, it is a time of great emotion and speculation - both positive and negative. The story could be from a single event or something that spanned over a long period of time.
Learning objectives: Gain experience in working with visual storytelling through time, sound, and movement with inspiration from cinematic language and motion graphic design methods. 
The story/video is based on memories from my "Efterskole-time". The 2D animation must represent hands that "capture" moments/memories (just like a camera would). The music also creates, for me, memories of another time. 
The sound and design should reflect a kind of retro aspect, with sound recorded on a phone and black and white images. The 2D illustrations are "imperfect" and should remind me of drawings I drew when I was a teenager.
