IF I WERE SMALL (Calarts 2024) 

This whole film feels like a beloved childrens book, I loveeee the use of texture and colour it gives everything such a tactile, dreamlike quality. So pretty. And the voice actor did a brilliant job :D

It felt like the character only lived for a day but it was the most important day ever ❤

This makes me miss being a kid. Things where so simple. The world felt like an unexplored - even magical place. We should all take note and try to stop and enjoy the moments of wonder and imagination more often.❤🥺

I can't get over the lovely texture. Watercolor children's book vibes. Adorable and calming take on the cycle of life and death without directly relating to it.

youre smoking the passionate youth pack

Was not expecting that ending omg... This is so gorgeous though, the background paintings are especially lovely ❤

this is so beautiful, for a moment we get transported to what it would be like to be small!! the childs voice with the whimsical chalky visuals and bright colors is so wonderful

soooo so beautiful and charming... love everything about this. u r a genius

I want this to blow up so more people can experience the same wonderful 2minutes that I just did

I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. The storybook vibes, the nostalgia, the texture. Everything is so beautiful!!!

My god, the colours, the vibe, the texture. Everything is perfect. In the woods part, it reminds me so much of Ben and Holly. I used to watch it all the time, such a memory :(

This is amazing!! I love how whimsical everything felt, how gigantic the bugs were and they were complimented well with the amazing color choices, and the sketchbook style. And its amazing how it really feels like it comes from the mind of a child, especially with how dark it got at the end. Amazing work!!

So beautifully done! from the art style and animation style used its like a peak into a kids daydream simple and yet full. Thank you for sharing this magical work!

It feels like a lost PBS special in the best way

Now I want my own pine needle sword. Great film!

Wow, definitely worth rewatching it over and over again.

Everything about this is so pretty, it feel like a fairy tale!!

Sooooooo cute and perfect in all its messy texture, and beautiful mark making. I feel like this video affirms to me i can be wild and creative and it doesn’t have to be ‘perfect’ or neat or photorealistic which can be the biggest barrier to creative.

So full of wonder!

I can't put into words how much I love this! This is something you should be insanely proud of!

You replicated the actual crayon texture PERFECTLY in the background art!! It really does look like the whimsical imaginary world we would make up as children! Amazing work!!❤❤❤

So lovely 🌱🪲

This warmed my heart early in the morning in the train, rushing through life. Reminded to stop and appreciate life itself, the wonder and the fragility of it.😢❤❤❤

I LOVEE THIS!! The colours, textures its all so nostalgic and feels so close to home. Makes me miss being a child with so many aspirations.

The berry looked delicious and the part the small friend swam peacefully in the water was very beautiful. I am so charmed by this video :'3 you did amazing!

this reminds me of a children's art book and I love it so much

great work! dope texturess

I absolutely love everything about this! The colors, textures, sounds, everything! Wow! It’s so lovely! 🩵🦋

i’m gonna cry how much i love this vid! ive loved lil bugs as a kid and i miss practically living with them in the backyard, felt just like this

i feel all warm and fuzzy now, thank you☺️

This looks like something I would watch as a kid and become such a core memory that it impacts the way I make art, and eventually inspire me to become an animator myself

So wonderful, one of my favorites of this year I’ve seen so far.

This is so pretty!!! I love everything about it, from the animation to the choice of song. I'm so happy that I found this! :D

i just wanna tell u that not all animations stick in my brain but this one is stuck inside me and i cannot get it out, thank you for that

genuinely if you make a childrens book with panels from this I think it would be a preschool staple

I adore this! Thank you for sharing it with the world. Have a blessed day.

OMG THIS IS SO GOOD you captured the crayon aesthetic so well and it gives the background so much character such a cute story :)
