A ballet dancer battles her own reflection, overcoming doubt and fear by channeling her inner strength, grace and power.

I directed Reflect through Disney Feature Animation’s Short Circuit program. It was highly experimental in concept and execution. We had to work out of order in our pipeline which was exciting. I started by sharing beat boards with our composer. Once we had the music, we choreographed and storyboarded the short film. Since reflections were key to the story, I worked closely with lighters and tech animators even during the layout phase of production to iron out any complex shots. It was a wonderfully creative experience. This short is meaningful to me in so many way. It is available to stream on Disney+ in season 2 of Short Circuit.
