The Stars, they Speak (An animated short film)
Project Overview
"The Stars They Speak" is a 3D animated short film about a girl who can speak to the stars, and discovers a world unknown. Think of Beauty and the Beast meets Sci-Fi. I aim for the animation to be around 7-10 minutes. I should be completely finished with production in around a year or so, but it WILL be a finished project. I'm an animation student, so it's also for my final demo reel. The animation will be uploaded to youtube.

Eliana is the lead character of the animated short. She's very reclusive and has a calming voice, similar to Jennifer Lawrence.
My name is Eliana. I’m alone in my satellite pod, surrounded by deep-space. I’m
lost. I don’t know how much time has passed, but nobody will find me. I haven’t
spoken to another soul, so I spoke to the stars. Thing is, I didn’t expect one of them to
speak back to me.I count my numbered days by the stars. Into my eyes melt the celestial light. I long for company besides these million suns. But the silence is all I have in my satellite
Orion is the only other major character in the animated film. He is an actual *star* (Humans can only see their "human" form in the afterlife, which is why they look like lights in the sky to us right now.) He's very curious about Eliana's world and wants to protect her, although he holds a dark secret. Think of Beauty and the Beast, but it's sci-fi and the beast is a star.
My name is Orion. I'm a Star. Your soul resides in the Cosmos now.
Eliana, there is no way to go back!
Eliana, I'm sorry... I did this.
