Stop Motion Short Film - Trapped With Yourself (2021)

A short film I made back in 2021 starring my own original character, Frank the Mule. Somewhat, autobiographical, but more to do with the angst people felt during the 2020 pandemic lockdown. The notion of having to do with yourself, less as being trapped at him versus being trapped with your own psyche. Originally, I has narration to go along with the themes, but felt it more appropriate to let the imagery do the talking. There's a lot to infer, and I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments section.
I hope to do a behind the scenes about this video and talk more about how I was able to make it in one sitting. It's far from perfect, but felt it was worth sharing on this channel.
