Clément Soulmagnon, a director/animator repped by Eddy in Paris, brings his distinctive illustrative style to “Aurore”, a new short film documenting the watery final hours of the eponymous heroine in her fragile glass cage.

Camille Principiano, producer at Eddy: “Clement’s radical use of empty spaces and bright colors is astoundingly lush. He likes to play with paradoxes, he pictures drama in lavish compositions and will find lightness even in the darkest moment.”

“The film was animated digitally at Brunch Studio with TV paint. The watercolor textures were scanned and added during compositing in After Effects. Backgrounds were made in Photoshop.”
