DARKROOM: USC Animated Film - Erica Garay. An animated film completely animated and composited by me, focusing on a a shy photographer who fantasizes about a witch girl loitering outside her house, falling deeper and deeper into unhealthy obsession. For compositing, I used camera-inspired graphic design, color grading, and lighting-edge treatments tailored to shifting light scenarios to support mood and storytelling.
