AEAF Short Film

With his best pal by his side, a young boy and his dog set off on an afternoon adventure in the countryside instead of finishing their chores. In true ‘Huck Finn’ style the pair immediately find themselves in some light-hearted mischief when they come across a buzzing bee. One thing leads to another and the next the bee knows, he’s lost his bumblebee pants and is left very much as one with nature.

Sound design plays a large and important part of this short film to tell the story as the lead characters have very little dialogue. The style of the animation uses very bright colours, characters made up of simple shapes and movements best described as silly to engage quickly with young children.
