THE BLONDE
Director: Hannah Tobin

The Blonde was my graduate film completed in 2026 at UWE. It began as an idea in 2023 based on a poem by my friend and collegue Richard Butnotfamous. I was leaning into the Noir style because i absolutely love the impact that Noir lighting can have in a film! This project has been a massive part of my life for the past year especially, and I am immensely proud that my hard work is evident on screen.

​

 I Modelled and Rigged the 2 Main Characters, Robby, and Lady. They had a lot of renditions over the process and their texturing also went through a lot of development. I also modelled and textured most of the props and buildings, but I was lucky to have some assistance for the modelling from some of my talented colleagues.

I did all of the Animation and Camera work myself, and I also discovered a deep passion for Lighting and Rendering in CG
