'Helene' is a retelling of a Mapuche (Indigenous Chilean/Argentinian People) folk tale called 'La Calchona'.
It follows a shapeshifting witch who secretly helps people in the night and is one night discovered by her children and later husband who fears her.
The project was co-directed by myself, Gabriel Goody, Paula Bošnjak, Robin Fountain, and Georgia Schonfeldt under supervision of Sas Milledge and Sacha Bryning for RMIT University.
My Primary role during the project was Puppet Animator, Background Lead and Effects Animator, but I was also involved in concepts development, a third of the storyboarding, creating the animatic, and creating the sound design.
