Fireworks by Samuel Hunter - BA (Hons) Animation Graduate Project 2026

Fireworks

My major project focused on producing high-quality animation work suitable for a professional portfolio. The final piece is approximately 20 seconds long, originally developed from two 30-second ideas before being refined into one completed scene.


I initially experimented with fight scenes, but due to limited experience, I found them challenging and shifted my focus. The final animation follows a girl running, removing her shoes, and descending stairs to a fireworks festival where she enjoys the display.


This scene was chosen to highlight my character animation skills, while also incorporating environmental animation. The setting is a Japanese summer festival, inspired by my interest in the language and the connections I have made through learning it.
