it’s……up……my first year film in CalArts………

Putting “CalArts 20XX” after my work is totally my life dream so now I can die happily.

I kind of hate my film(?) and hope i’ve spent more time on it but I’m happy with the experience this year. Thanks so much for everyone who’ve helped me!

BFA1 student Crystal Kung’s film “Shadow” beautifully explores themes of homesickness and anxiety.

Here is my fourth year film at CalArts! It was animated completely in Maya. Huge thanks to Phil Rynda, Andrew Chesworth, Dariush Derakhshani, my voice actor Joe Whyte, and my composer Gage Bruce for making this all come together.
