Client : Studio Chizu, Cartoon Saloon

Director : Mamoru Hosoda

Role : Production Designer

Awards : Annie Awards - Best Production Design: Feature, Nominee

In 2019, as part of a group of artists lead by Tomm More and Ross Stewart, we worked with director Mamoru Hosoda to create a dream sequence inside of the world of “U” in his feature film “Belle”. We created a unique and completely new style, designing a fantasy and a mirage in a virtual world.

I was in charge of creating the final style for the dream sequence and producing the final concepts that you can see here, which were beautifully animated at Studio Chizu afterwards. We were very humbled and thankful to see our work nominated for an Annie Award  for "Best Production Design for Feature."
