Lost & Found

by | Jun 6, 2024

A short story that has been refined into a script from a 10th-grade essay prompt – Lost & Found. The notion that, to be found, one must have been lost in the first place, inspired an association that the two concepts are codependent. I then attempted to envision this through the personification of two characters lacking an ability, which they can find in the presence of one another. My creation of this short story into a film challenged me to push my boundaries as a writer dependent on words, to a writer that can incorporate this thought into a visual medium. I precisely imagine the script to follow an animation format, deeply inspired by the sketchy colour-dense illustrations of Holly Warburton.
