True Sound Façade

Commissioned by Barbican x The Smalls for their «Inside out» short film series, «True Sound Facade» is a poetic dance and animation film in which a dancer realises their digital self feels truer than their real world self. It stars Kino McHugh, dancing with and against a colourful animated environment born out of her movements. By combining live-action and animation, the film becomes a celebration of how our inner and outer lives merge with each other playfully in the act of artistic creation.
