Synopsis
This is a story about a new born baby sea turtle’s trying journey from the comforts of her nest on the beach to the ocean. This is a story about resilience and triumph.
Assets and Software
This video was created using creative commons licensed assets(still images and short video clips) collected online from sites such as Flickr and Istock . I tried to obtain live images instead of animated assets to create reliasim for the protagonist. The video was created and edited using the program CapCut. The audio narrative portion of this project was recorded by me on an Iphone 13 ProMax using the program GarageBand.
