Senior Project - Kafkaesque

Kafkaesque is the short film my team and I are creating for Senior Studio. Kafkaesque is inspired by Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis, which I read (or, to be more specific, listened to the audiobook of) when I was 18. For me, The Metamorphosis evokes a feeling of mundane misery and alienation from the self that parallels my own struggles with my mental health. Since I first conceived of the short in November 2022, it has morphed considerably and become an extensive team effort. The Kafkaesque team now includes Yeona Choi, Cailin Campbell, and Ryan Farquharson.
