Best Birthday Ever

ABOUT Best Birthday Ever

 

BBE is about a birthday girl who goes through a ridiculous day.

 

Best Birthday Ever is a short VFX film directed by Alexis Jo (Me!).

 

How I came up with the 'Birthday' Idea

I've seen previous seniors working their butts off entire senior year just for one thing- senior thesis film. Usually, thesis screening is in April and May, and because my birthday is in April, I wanted to dedicate my own film to myself haha. As a VFX student, all this senior thesis thing is love and hate. I love Visual Effects with my biggest passion, but at times, I can't help the hatred feeling when I see myself dying over school assignment. Likewise, BBE is supposed to be a happy film since it is a story about a girl's birthday, but ironically, audience will feel sorry for Daisy who goes through the worst day in her life.
