My 2D animated short Red was screened at Les Sommets Du Cinema D'Animation (26-31 May). Had a great time visiting Montreal, and even sneaked in a trip to the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. 🎈 Older screenings to follow. @sommetsanim.bsky.social #animation #2danimation #animatedshort #animationfestival

Thanks ^^

Yeah, not to the extent of the original, but I remember hearing it in the drama, otherwise I actually wouldn’t have known to look for it ^^;;

I like this one, Ever Night Darkness, but there is a version floating around sung by a man, it resonates with me more somehow ^^

Thank you ^^

Thank you 🌱 Your complement means a lot, sometimes it does feel like shouting into the void with no one listening 🌿
