Kamikaze: Trial by Fire is a short animated film adapted from an existing graphic novel. Contracted under Echo Bridge, the goal was to translate the illustrated source material into motion while preserving its distinct tone, mood, and visual identity.

 

My work:

I developed the initial visual concepts and established the background art style, ensuring the environments felt authentic to the novel while functioning effectively for animation. My role focused on creating a cohesive visual foundation that allowed the story to feel as though it had stepped directly off the page and into motion.
