Los Zapaticos de Rosa (The Little Rose Shoes) is my latest animation. It tells the story of a little Cuban girl who gives her best shoes away. It is based on the poem for children of the same name by the Cuban poet José Martí. It was my final year project on the BA Animation course at The Northern Film School.
I have had a plan for some time, with a musician I know, who is a flautist and band leader. We plan to collaborate creating animations for some of her flute solos to use in her performances. She knows a great about Cuban music. I worked before with her as a dancer and dance teacher at her band's performances. I am developing a character for this.
