We are excited to present a short film produced by Trizz, in celebration of Earth Day 2024—albeit a few weeks belatedly. This film is a introspection on the essence of human existence in our era, juxtaposing the relentless stimuli of our daily lives with the enduring beauty of a world on the brink of transformation. It captures the sublime moments our planet might still offer in that dystopic moment in time, highlighting the uniquely human capacity to perceive beauty, no matter the circumstances. This ability fundamentally influences our relationship with Earth, a crucial trait to remember during the complex times in which we live. Yet, in the face of this foreboding horizon, we seize the narrative to reaffirm the brightest facets of human nature: our indomitable spirit, our profound capacity for kindness, and our unwavering devotion to preserving this beautiful planet. Together, let us embrace these virtues, forging ahead with resilience, humanity, and love, as we dare to envision and shape a future where hope outshines fear. We hope you find it as moving and meaningful as we do. This short created fully with CG animation and render, no AI here

"A Long Journey" weaves a poignant tale of Korea's modern history and the life of a family, as seen through the reflections of an elderly man in his 80s. From the Japanese colonial period, through the Korean War, the era of overseas labor, and the nation’s rapid economic rise, the protagonist's life unfolds in parallel with the growth of the country. Through the lens of deep familial love, sacrifice, and his unwavering care for his wife until the very end, this moving story contemplates the profound meaning and value of life.

An experimental essay/manifesto positing generative AI as a means to explore collective consciousness, pan-cultural creative histories, and the meaningful world of dreams. Playful and provocative, the short is a look at the creative potentials of generative AI film making. All media elements, including still image, animation, spoken dialogue and music, were generated with AI. The script, however, was written in its entirety by a human.
