The topic I chose for this 1-minute animation film was ‘Unusual friendships’. Owing to the purposeful vagueness of the term, I set about asking myself a set of questions that I would like to conceptually answer before the ideas started to flow. Friendship is a mutual rapport or bonding between two individuals, sparked from a place of common interest. Unlike relationships bound by blood (parents, siblings, relatives) or morality and legal procedures (spouse), friendship occurs at one’s own discretion and multiple times in one’s lifetime. Due to the non-obligate nature of this relationship, friendship encourages comfort and encouragement between the two friends. So, following a standardised pattern, the people we choose to be friends with are mostly the ones we share a large common ground with. This being established, I decided to analyse my topic closely.
