OUR MOTHER MARY

Our Mother Mary is my fourth-year thesis film produced at Ringling College of Art & Design. It was a collaborative project between myself and Ollie Wang, originally inspired by restricted area signs seen along protected woodlands and military camps around Singapore's cityscape.
It follows Ming, a shy young boy from a Catholic school, as he attempts to befriend another boy Al (Aloysius), while the gaze of a statue of Mother Mary looms over their every move.

Final poster posed, composited, and edited together in Maya, Nuke, and Photoshop by me.
Stills from the final film composited by me in Nuke. All textures were made with Arnold aiToonShader. We wanted to mimic the look of 16mm footage, which we did through a series of noise nodes in Nuke.
