My thesis film from CalArts, which revolves around a romance between theme park co-workers whose mutual crushes put them in a constant push and pull of emotions.

oh my god this is gorgeous. the colours, the lighting, the tiny nuances of the expressions??? the sun and moon motif will never not slap, let's be honest. i love how the girl's stubborn front and the guys' mask were their individual barriers against expressing their feelings and then she quite literally exploded through both. my compliments to the chef :]

I only looked over to the view count at the end!! I honestly expected this to have around a million views and was super shocked to see it wasn't even at 2k 😭 I was experiencing serious deja vu because I thought I had heard this song already, before I looked over to the channel name I actually thought it was an EVE music video. Stellar work! Was super surprised you were the only animator when this MV looks like it took a whole team to produce!!

@mivchoi 2 ай бұрын

Wow thank you so much!! 🥲EVE"s music videos are super fun, so that's very flattering to hear haha Being the sole creator of this film was definitely an experience-- while it did result in a longer production to make this film, I learned a lot from it too! Hope I can share more stuff in the future✨

Is "the coolest" the name of the animation short film you're talking about? I can't find it so I would greatly appreciate it if you could give me more info. :) On my part, this amazing animation reminded me "Try hard" on the Gobelins channel from 6 years ago, so professional and enjoyable!!

@privernd Ай бұрын

I keep watching this. I love it so much, from the music and character designs to the solar/astrology aesthetics and the blue and gold colors and the character's movements and expressions. I love the symbolism with the sun festival and how the main characters are essentially "orbiting" one another. They both like each other but are afraid to get too close, that is until the girl decides to essentially break the orbit by taking matters into her own hands. I love how the teacup ride also shows this symbolically! I keep watching over and over and noticing little details like this that really strengthen the story and overall message. Thank you for making this!! I wish the best for your future career in animation!

@mivchoi Ай бұрын

Oh my goodness! Thank you for your thoughtful message! 🥺 I'm touched that you enjoyed the film and noticed all those details-- it's always a risk with a film that has no dialogue, so I'm glad to hear that the symbolism and "orbiting" motif came across^^ Hope to share more things in the future💛 Hope you have a great day🌟

This is absolutely stunning and these two have me absolutely punching the air and kicking my feet!! They are so adorable and I am nothing if not a sucker for sun boys and moon girls (plus their designs?? Their expressions?? Chef's kiss. If their concept art ever comes out I need it to be embedded into my brain). This really feels like it's straight out of an early 2000's romcom and I adore it. Wonderful job!! The urge to draw fanart of these two is growing with each rewatch

The colours, character designs and the overall style and animation (AND OH HOW LIVELY DO THEIR MOTIONS/ACTIONS FEEL HAHAH like when the girl gets embarassed by her colleagues remark on the mascot guy and starts just straight up slapping her, so real lol) Personal favourite part is when the main character is sitting in the cabin and has this moment of sudden realization that the guy probably likes her too, you can quite literally see the moment she realizes!!! (The other favourite is the ending haha! Again, the expressions and designs there are just👌👌)

I don’t usually comment, but this short film has been on my mind for quite a few days- like I LITERALLY can’t stop thinking about it. I’m so in love with the concept, it’s such a fresh take for me and the ending is absolutely adorable. There’s especially something special about the fact that despite only seeing the characters for like 4 minutes, I’m still able to see the complexities of each person and that’s honestly super hard to pull off!! Miv is such an admirable person and I aspire to be someone who can even make a fraction of this gorgeous piece of art 😭😭 I’m sharing this with all my friends!!!

This is really cool and I love it! The fluid motions and the metaphors that move with the music are really awesome. This is really impressive for a college project! I have seen hundreds of these calarts/ gobelins type short animations and this one is one of the best simply for the music video aspect. Its just all so creative and really well done. My favorite thing is how you captured the subtle inner emotions of the characters, like how the girl gives the sun plushie a not so playful punch and then stares at it embarrassed of her own feelings. Its just an amazing mashup of good music, fluid animations, great characterizations and its just plain beautiful. Plus this being so long, it must have been serious work! You have serious talent and I cannot wait to see what else you come up with!

This is so adorable, it got me blushing so hard, Gosh the animation so smooth, it's life like. I feel like every shot is well thought through to connect and follow the song.

This is so gorgeous oh my goodness!! The colour palette, the expressions, the movements, the symbolism of everything spinning around, the way almost every action syncs up with the music?? I’d watch an entire series about these characters, you did an amazing job!

this is simply wonderful, like those old animations on KZfaq that you always see over the years, I was even surprised to see that it was a recent video, simply a lovely art lesson
