Today, our animated short film, “Dear Neighbors,” premieres at the Sundance Film Festival. The film will be screened at the Sundance Institute's Media Center, a space dedicated to the artist's original tools and technologies that support visual storytelling.
The title of “Upstairs Neighbors” is the story of a young woman, Ada, who was desperate to sleep at night but her neighbors are very noisy. As he struggles to imagine what could be causing the cacophony above, reality drifts into fiction, and a great battle for peace and reason ensues.
The film is a collaboration between animation veterans, including director and Pixar alum Connie He, and Google DeepMind researchers, brought together by the shared goal of exploring how production tools can fit into artists' creative processes.
