This experimental short, The Morph, explores themes of identity, transformation, and the conflict between one’s authentic self and the weight of external influences.
Utilizing LED XR technology, volumetric capture, and motion capture, the character transforms into various creatures embodying the burden of expectations, ultimately leading to the collapse of the self.
