The Project

A miniature world built to feel handmade.

The Next Chapter is a self-initiated 3D short film exploring a tactile, clay-like visual language. I created the piece from concept to final image, including modeling, scene building, materials, lighting, animation and compositing. Every scene created from a distinct colour palette.

Digital tools, physical character

The goal was never polished photorealism. I wanted the world to feel small, imperfect and tangible, using exaggerated forms, soft materials and miniature-scale lighting to give the film its handmade character.
