Departing Once Again

My role: Director, Animation, Design, Sound Design

Narrator: Justin Vitiello
Music: Jacob Horwat

A story of one's environs, "Departing Once Again" is loosely based on a poem by Justin Vitiello from his book SUICIDE OF AN ETHNIC POET / SUICIDIO DI UN POETA ETNICO. Developed throughout my final year at Edinboro University, it was completed in October 2005. This is my first short film.
