Stressa here! For my entry I wanted to make a little cinematic adventure about: Stressella goes to CapCut World LA! So, she books a free trial with a rather shady 100-year-old teleportal agent. Of course the old lady mistakes her for Cinderella and sends her through the wrong portal. Stressella ends up at a victorian ball in Cinderella universe, running away before she even gets to dance with Prince Charming. Luckily, her Fairy Godmother shows up and gives her a star to travel through space and time to LA.

I chose a star because I wanted her to look like a fallen star landing right in front of the Audrey Irmas Pavilion for CapCut World LA. I thought it'd be a fun way to turn a simple trip to LA into a chaotic fairytale adventure. Honestly wish I had another 30 seconds to let Stressella meet Prince Charming. Just imagined their ridiculous little banter 😭

This was genuinely so much fun to make, and I hope you have as much fun watching it as I did creating it! Thank you so much for the opportunity to join this challenge and bring this little story to life. Wishing everyone the best of luck, and can't wait to see what everyone has created! 🤞😋

a 100 year old teleportal agent mixing her up with cinderella is the kind of premise i'd watch a whole series of

A motion study for AEONIS, a concept health optimisation and longevity clinic. The octopus can regrow its own limbs, so it became the brand’s subject: a living case for repair and renewal.

I modelled and animated the turn in Blender, then rebuilt every frame as its own print: thermal heat maps, negative scans, overcast silhouettes, paper studies, mist and colour bleed. Each image changes on twos like stop motion, so the octopus turns continuously while its look never settles.

AEONIS is a fictional brand created for this piece.

The mix of textures and changing visuals sounds so unique! Such a creative way to connect the octopus with the idea of renewal. 👏
