Whirlwind

Animation
Director's Choice • 2021

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
"Whirlwind" is a hand-drawn animation, consisting of over 700 ink drawings, rendered during the early stages (from March to July) of the 2020 global pandemic. The film"s visuals were elicited by unfolding events during these months. The process of drawing this film, frame by frame, coincided with a unique sense of time and space that emerged during the pandemic. Influenced by early twentieth century animation, this film attempts to visualize new rhythms of life emerging during a time of rapid sociocultural change-shifting away from carefully controlled perspectives and vanishing points, while depicting a constant sense of movement and transformation.
