Family Rewritten is the story of Camilla, age 16, despite battling Cystic Fibrosis, identifies as a typical middle-class American teenager until the thread that holds her family together suddenly snaps. Just months before her 18th birthday Camilla finds herself in foster care, but instead of being ashamed, she makes a conscious decision to not let her situation define her.
As lead illustrator for Family Rewritten I created 30+ mixed media illustrations and guide animations during the 7 month production period. I worked directly with the director to help her vision come to life, as well as assisted in film promotion and exposure.
