“Fragments” is a film about growing up and losing your imaginary friend in a world that calls back to one’s youth. The visuals are inspired by early 3D games on the Playstation 1 as well as real locations that serve as the inspiration for the environments in the film. An experimental 360 film featuring ambisonic audio. The project was made with a combination of Blender, Premiere Pro and Photoshop.
