A new short film from Doug Alberts. Best buds are forever.
In early 2020, Doug and his girlfriend found themselves at one of the hardest moments of their relationship and friendship. Year was sadly cut short when Covid sent us back to our home states, about 1200 miles away. In that time of separation, they depended on the memories that made their relationship sound. This film marks their moments of happiness and struggle in that season of distance dating.
A difficult challenge for Doug was wanting the characters to be a soft, 2D feel in 3D harsh enviroment. The best solution for this was making them in 3D using volume mesher with the addition of light textures so wherever the flat characters traveled their light would bounce off of objects around them.
Stef and Doug are still happily together today.
