Dragons

Storyboard/Styleframes/Animatic

 

"They paint the world full of shadows and then tell their children to stay close to the light- their light. […] Because in the darkness, there be dragons. But it isn't true. […] In the dark there is discovery. There is possibility. There is freedom in the dark, once someone has illuminated it."

- Black Sails

 

A project based on a speech from the TV show Black Sails, in which pirate Captain Flint tries to convince his first mate to join him in his fight against civilization. In greater context, this is a speech given from the point of view of a gay man, talking about finding freedom in the parts of himself others had told him were dangerous. This project is aimed towards LGBT+ and questioning young adults, encouraging them to not be afraid to search for answers.
