My graduation film Khoda.
Description:
What if you watch a film and whenever you pause it, you face a painting? This idea inspired Reza Dolatabadi to make Khoda. Over 6000 paintings were painstakingly produced during two years to create a five minutes film that would meet high personal standards. Khoda is a psychological thriller; a student project which was seen as a ‘mission impossible’ by many people but eventually proved possible!

Just awesome.
It's amazing how the style constantly changes throughout the film... that's 2 and a half years of growth right there.
Staff picked!
wow! how much work!
I personally loved the escape/running part!
Really good!
Congrats!
When organising a shoot I can story-board to about lunch. After that the shoot is in the hands of the gods. To conceptualise and create for two years is just beyond me. My hat is off to you.
