Abstract:
Unwell is a short-animated film about the coronavirus pandemic. The narrative of the film
focuses on how the pandemic played out in the United States. The film merges my experience with 2D
and 3D animation. The various conflicts we have all seen on the news became clear to me when I
witnessed a stranger who, in front of his children mocked everyone in the store that was wearing a face
mask. What we are experiencing is a serious lack of empathy and it translates directly into infections and
fatalities. On the other hand, it resulted in businesses failing and the interruption of our lifestyles.
Regardless of how people become infected, it is taking a toll on our healthcare providers. Courageous
nurses are saving their lives.
