A Very Short Happy True Story
Spring 2025
Created with CSS/HTML, GitHub, Photoshop and Audacity
For this final project, I chose to tell a simple but meaningful story, inspired by an image I had created in a previous class. I used my own drawings to keep the piece personal and selected a soft pastel color palette to bring tenderness and warmth to the narrative. The background music includes excerpts from a personal composition that incorporates elements of Peruvian music, helping to reflect the cultural identity and emotional depth of the story. I hope that those who experience this piece feel a bit more hopeful, and are reminded that happiness can exist even in difficult times. The most challenging part was recording the narration, as my environment isn’t very quiet, so I decided to use an AI-generated voice to tell the story. I also had some difficulty finding a background image with a Creative Commons license, but eventually found one and edited it using color balance, curves, and other adjustments to match the tone of each drawing.
Music and draws are original.
