Meet Poppy
Meet Poppy
Poppy wants a pretty flower like the rest of the other saplings, so she goes on an investigative adventure to find out what others did to make their flowers bloom. She tries each of their remedies in turn, but nothing works! She later realizes why: trying to copy what works for others won't do her any good in finding out what works for her.
This heartfelt story is about being patient with yourself, and learning to not worry so much about the things that other people have.

My undergraduate senior thesis project, IYA (2019), was a short animated film that follows the journey of Ọmọ, a young girl who has recently lost her mother. Through the integration of the traditional mythology from the Yoruba people of West Africa, Ọmọ finds peace and reassurance that her mother is still with her. It was my goal to really strike an emotional cord with the audience, and for those who had experienced the same heartache as Ọmọ in losing a loved one, to come to find the same peace that she did.
