"Spellbound" is a minute-long short film created with the help of my animation team for a semester-long project for our university's vertical studio Fall of 2024. The short film follows an unknown, amateur magician who attempts to practice magic in his study. Though, as he reads through his grimoire, he soon learns to realize that he is more powerful than he believes to be.

What I worked on:

I was responsible for the look development, layout, and lighting of the film. I created some concept art for some of the assets, including the table, side table, lamp, candles, and bookshelf. I modeled the table and candles and surfaced the table, lamp, and candles.
