About "Draw"
Draw is a short film about a game of chess, in which we go beyond the inanimate objects that make up the game and see the combat beneath the surface.

Studio Project
Working with a team of ten students from both the VFX and animation departments, this collaborative short was filmed on location in London, with animation and VFX all completed at Escape Studios.  The live action plates were scanned and tracked, and were completed with digital animation in Maya, composited and rendered in Arnold.
