Blues Mallard

Blues Mallard is a short, computer-generated animation, capturing a living slice of a larger world that is not our own. It represents a scene of mundanity to its inhabitants, but one that is odd and intriguing from an external perspective. This world is dirty and roughened, bearing marks of interaction in (nearly) each corner. On inspection, nothing is simulated to a realistic degree, faces are blurry, noticeable shortcuts are taken, and things don’t move quite right, however realism, photo or otherwise, is not the goal. The aim is rather to be able to feel the scene breath, and for there to be potential to sense a story in its every aspect. It is a part of a larger, ongoing animation project.
