New project half animated

For a project, I thought I would create a short 10-minute film about industrial violence linking to knife crime of which 5-minutes of the film would transition into animation. Just a different idea for this type of messages that I want to be put across.

I will be working with my two closest friends who will specialise in illustrations and filming. The animations will be imported into After Effects and it would create a surreal effect on the drawings. The film will be in colour but would slowly change into black and white as we go into the animation. 

The storyline is about a young boy who is hurt mentally due to his parent’s negligence towards him and constant arguments within the family which causes him to take his anger out on others. As he grows up his violence increases and eventually resulting in committing knife crime.

We are still working on the project and idea. We’d appreciate all suggestions and comments =)
