Rejected by his flawless friends, a fallen grape in a grocery store must find a new purpose in life.

​

A play on the popular French phrase raison d'etre, or "the reason to be", Raisin D'etre is a 2D animated short made in collaboration with Ashley Ma and Neyah Barbee for our 2016 sophomore final.

 

Along with doing my share of the animation, I was also able to compose the entire soundtrack. This was my first time creating music that had to match the timing of a video.
