At the Balcony
At the Balcony
At the Balcony is a cut-out stop-motion animation based on a personal childhood memory with my father. Created as part of a collaborative anthology film, the project pairs original voice-over narration with hand-painted gouache cut-outs, animated frame by frame to create a warm and tactile visual language.
Approach
The animation translates a personal memory into a simple, intimate visual narrative, using cut-out characters and objects to accompany the voice-over. The handmade process allows the imperfections of the materials and movement to become part of the story.
Visual Language
Hand-painted gouache cut-outs create a soft, tactile aesthetic with visible brushwork and organic forms. Frame-by-frame movement gives the animation a handmade quality that complements the personal nature of the story.
