The short film “The boy and his Umbrella” is an exploration of relationship shared between a small child, his grandfather and a huge umbrella. The film is about a boy who is completely enthralled by the size of his grandfather’s umbrella and is eager to take it out in the rains, and the various events that occur while he is carrying out this mission. The film revolves around emotions of love, affection, disappointment, attachment and attraction and the ups and downs that one experiences with subtle overtones of humour. Style and treatment used. Since the roots for my project were my childhood I used the classic black and white editorial style illustration. The film is looks like moving illustrations.
