Blik is our graduation film, about a young boy who moves to a new neighbourhood and falls in love for the first time, with the much older girl next door. 

The challenge was telling this short story without the use of faces, using only body language to convey often subtle emotion. This required a shading and animation style that would communicate posture and motion very clearly.
