N.EMation! (2024-2025)

A mini film project I worked on with two other friends (Team Rabbids!). We later submitted our clip for the N.EMation! 2024 annual Animation Competition in Singapore, and we managed to become one of the Top 10 Finalists! Posted here are my contributions to this project (both pre-production and production).
