This is going to be my second short film made in Unreal Engine. Currently it is in the pre-production stage.
The Goo (Animation | Short | Stylized)
Eric is a writer, and he is finishing his new play. It is a tradition for him to polish the text and add final touches staying at his favorite hotel room. As usual he is being met and welcomed by the hotel owner who escorts Eric to room 23.
The laptop is set up and all is ready for work. Eric’s imagination is drawing the images and fingers quickly type the text. Until something strange happens, all objects and characters in his mind begin to stick to each other…

Hi again @StanislavPetruk!
So nice to see more of your work. Hope you’ve been well. 
Looking at the few short clips here, they seem filled with so much character and charm. The art style, world design, and story all appear to be incredibly high quality and painstakingly crafted. As expected from your previous work. 
What inspired this story’s creation? And what made you come up with the idea of going inside a character’s imagination for a story?

I just want to share some updates on my new Virtual Production project - animated short in UE5. Before going into full production process I decided to give it a shot and launch Kickstarter campaign.
Even if you are not planning to help financially I am still happy and grateful that you took your time to learn about my project. And remember if you like my ideas you can always help by sharing this project page with your friends and followers.
