A Fish for A Friend at NTU ADM Portfolio

A Fish for A Friend is a 3D animated short film set in prehistoric times. The story is about a cave boy’s sympathy for a bear cub who can’t catch its own fish, and the adventure that ensues from helping the cub.

A Fish for A Friend aims to be a heartwarming family film with a valuable moral lesson, achieved through pantomime storytelling. Although it is a 3D animated film, the visuals are rendered with a flat and illustrative look, allowing the characters and the environments to look like they came right out of a children’s storybook, befitting more towards a younger audience.
