Graduate Film

“Critical Hit” is a 3D animated short film, telling the story of Chester, an excitable nerd with a passion for role-playing games and a big imagination. While buying snacks for an upcoming role-playing game, Chester’s vivid imagination gives the bland world around him a fantastical twist – but it also brings him face-to-face with a “monster”.

“Critical Hit”, written & directed by Siobhan Hardt, Bobby McCune, and Sinead Keane. Produced by Cian Desmond.

Challenge

This was our first time making anything on this scale and we had to teach ourselves almost everything to create this film. I struggled a lot with the topology on the characters and the rigging but in the end we managed to produce a film we could be proud of!
