It is animated in Krita, utilising After Effects to add texture and finalise, with audio mixed in FL Studio and backgrounds created using Blender.
This scene was the result of a study, "Crafting Empathy in Viewers of Animation", which aimed to explore and demonstrate how animation and visual techniques can be utilised to strengthen (or aid in the creation of) the empathetic relationship between viewers of an animation and the characters within it. The scene was created as a ddemonstration of animation techniques identified in research phase 1, and was the basis for evaluation during reseaarch phase 2.
