A Nightmare Tale: Red Riding Hood

A short animation featuring a common fairytale character: The Red Riding Hood. But the animation has a twist – everything is much darker than in the original version. On her way through the dark forest, during the peak of the full moon, a storm of lightning hits, revealing a surprise for the audience…

This animation was created during my university course. The task was to create a short 2D animation with sound effects, using a common story, but with our own twist and personality. My deep interest towards that, which is beyond the veil, is portrayed through the full-moon night setting and lightning effects.

This project taught me to bring 2D illustration into motion using the basic featuers of Adobe After Effects.
