    Paralysis

    Paralysis is my 2024 senior thesis film.

    A child loses their parent at a bustling outdoor market and frantically searches for them through a surreal, dynamic, increasingly turbulent environment, encountering a range of other worldly creatures. They ultimately come to find their parent deceased at the same place where they were lost, indicating that they have been dead the entire time, and the child has been chasing their own memory of them in denial of reality.

    All rigs and models made by me.

    Blender, Procreate, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premier Pro, Soundly, Garage Band.

The dad (Steve Carell) and the son (Timothee Chalamet) are passionately arguing in a diner booth. I emphasized expressing the nuances of the intense emotions that the characters are experiencing.

“Paralysis” Cast:

Blender

  • Protagonist

    A curious but dependent child, who looks to her mother for guidance. When her mother suddenly disappears, how will she fend for herself?

  • Foil Antagonist

    An ominous presence reflective of the bubbling chaos in the child's head as they lose their sense of reality.

  • Passive Mentor

    An almost deity-like figure, the mother serves as a visual guide that the child hastily chases after.
