LIAN’S CANDLE

"There are always two sides to every coin"

Positions: Creative Director, Concept Artist, Storyboard Artist, Illustrator, Animator, Scene Compositor, Post Editor, Producer, Voice of “Spirit Niol"  

Location Displayed: The White Box

Summary: An animation for a story completely of my own conception. This animation was to serve as the intro title sequence, (common in cartoon series) that sets the tone and introduces the viewer to the bigger world that the protagonist Lian Facio resides in. The tale is of how Lian’s life gets intertwined with the ancient spirit Niol, and his quest to right his wrongs. Through this passion project, I learned nearly all aspects of the creative production from concept drawing to final sound edits. I hope to one day expand upon this story further so I may share with many others adventures of Lian.
