I started developing my FMP project, tentatively titled Through the Snow. I want to create a 3D animated short film focusing on female growth, emotional healing, and pressure from reality.
The story is about an unemployed girl who accidentally enters a snowy forest. At first, she thinks she is escaping from this strange space, but later she realises that the forest is actually formed by her own anxiety, fear, and pain. She runs and becomes lost in the forest, until she is finally guided by butterflies formed from her tears and finds a way to face reality again.
For the visual style, I hope to create a low-saturation, cold, and quiet atmosphere with a digital painting texture. The snowy forest will exist between reality and illusion, reflecting the character’s psychological state.
