A young girl works in an office, lives alone in a small flat in a crowded city and her only companion is a yellow bird. One day a cloud appears above the flat, which brings rain endlessly.

People are waiting on an endless corridor to pay for the movie of their lives. In these movies, they play the protagonists. The short animation builds on the idea of Plato’s Cave: is our perception an illusion? Where does life take place? People are waiting outside a corridor’s single room to pay in. People leaving the room look different than the ones waiting. The main character enters the room with mixed feelings. Plato’s room is an interactive cinema where the viewer is also the protagonist. The main character must overcome his exaggerated fears and accept himself as he is. The decision he makes at the end will change his life forever.

Fish Out Of Water is a short experimental animated movie. When the norms, traditions, customs and culture of the society are taken as basis, there are individuals outside of them. These individuals who cannot adapt to the existing order are labeled 'misfit'. The visibility of missing individuals is very difficult in societies that have developed in order to maintain order, in fact it is so in every society. Because they're lost on their labels! These individuals, who have been ignored from the society, have difficulty in adapting to sexual orientation, race, gender, religion, and they struggle both inside and outside to be a part of the society puzzle. This is exactly the subject of this animation. Fish Out Of Water, whose main character is Osto, presents the society that caused the character's internal and external conflicts and the lost individual himself.

PYGMALION INFECTION SYNOPSIS The animated dance drama Pygmalion Infection corresponds to the latest trends in contemporary dance, and animation that explores human behavior in its interaction with robot dolls, Internet addiction known as "digital heroin," and violence against women. The plot is built as a fantastic love drama between the main character Pygmalion and an android doll. One of the most all-consuming problems of our world, namely loneliness, is being studied. An eccentric sound-music environment, uses the eclecticism of the unique sound of classical music by J.S. Bach, opposed and combined with different sound atmospheres and drum rhythms. In the psychopathology of the 21st century, new all-consuming addictions are taking place, but rediscovered through the eyes of the ancient transformation, the ancient Greek myth of Pygmalion is presented in an eccentrically relevant way. Examining the reflections of the topic in modern times, the statistical forecast indicates that by 2033 every tenth sexual contact in the world will be between a man and an android.

The project depicts the triggering of the affective memory starting from a drawing from childhood, from where the characters of the animation are inspired. The train journey is a pretext to recall family memories imbued with involuntary memory. The diffuse monosyllabic noise of the moving wagon determines the oscillation between dream and reality. Technically, the animation combines 2D sequences with stop-motion, in order to include the personal collection of train tickets, a list of activities, evidence of which exists, in an album suggestively titled: CNP (abbreviation for ID card). A-frame story where I try to visually illustrate who I was, am, and expect to become into an endless, dynamic and vibrant game.
