VISUAL TREATMENT
We were excited to explore the horror genre in animation (although somewhere along writing, the film became more of a suspense thriller). The Black and White style with hints of red gives a grim spooky feeling that one gets when confronted with one’s fears and imagination. The focus had to be on the story and the relationship between the two in a dark eerie setting.
