Porous
Porous is an experimental animated short by Cecilia Reeve that blends paint-on-glass, gouache, and digital techniques to create a fluid, dreamlike narrative. Through tactile frame-by-frame animation, the film explores memory, embodiment, and the blurred boundaries between water, skin, and the outside world.

  • Project Brief: Create an experimental animated short film exploring the boundaries between body, memory, and environment through tactile frame-by-frame animation techniques.

Creative video designs often thrive on materiality and atmosphere rather than conventional narrative structure. Porous embraces this approach through tactile hand-crafted animation techniques that merge physical paint textures with subtle digital transitions.
