Not The Same River. Not The Same Man. - Short Film

4:19min, digital and traditional (acrylic paint) animation, 2017
A fisherman takes his boat out on the river.
While he and his surroundings are in a constant flow, the viewer observes the passing of time, watching everything go through movement and change.
In an ever-flowing cycle, things come to be, change, evolve, and pass on....
- 'No man ever steps in the same river twice. As it's not the same river, and he's not the same man.' - Heraklit

Created with acrylic paints, this animation explores the idea of time and movement in animation. As we believe, only through change and movement, we can perceive time. In animation, this relationship is deepened as only through change time and movement, can exist, with a change happening frame by frame.
