The Fourth- short film

A short fictional film about a girl with a dangerous obsession.

“As an artist, I love fusing reality with fiction. I enjoy exaggerating and building upon human experiences, flaws and complexities. Along with animation, I have studied integrated media, where I have gained knowledge in various areas of filmmaking- screenwriting, directing, editing etc. I have enjoyed establishing my artistry, and am passionate to explore mixed media in the future. 'The Fourth' is a short film about an obsessive girl who will stop at nothing to have a boy she likes. I love exploring the depths and darkness of the human mind. How people deal with addictions, obsessions, melancholy, loss. This project was inspired by Isabel Larosa's music video for her song called 'Older'. This was my first ever solo film, and though it can have some technical improvements, I am proud to have made a successful project. I had made storyboards of the shots, used diegetic sound and a background score. ”
