"The Gift" (2:00)

"The Gift" was my second year film. Its about a young boy who learns to fish with his grandfather. Basically about being young and experiencing the world through fresh eyes seen through the point of view of someone older and wiser.

Out of all my films, I feel that this was my favorite just because of the look and the message of it. It's also the only film of mine in "color". When I watch it, I can recall how hard it was to finish just because I threw out so much animation that I simply wasnt happy with. It was also the first time I stayed up consecutively for two days to get the film turned in on time....There was a real sense of accomplishment when it was finally finished.
