00:01My name is Hillary Bradfield, and Reflect is about body positivity.
00:07The idea for this short began thinking about my own body philosophy.
00:13I feel like I'm a very body positive person in principle,
00:18but when it's on a personal level, it's a lot harder to be body positive.
00:24Setting the story from a dancer's perspective seemed just natural,
00:27and it's a part of the craft to be looking at your posture
00:30and checking things in the mirror,
00:32so it just seemed like a really good way to put her in that environment
00:35where she has to look at herself and she doesn't want to.
00:38When I pitched the short, I didn't know that it was actually super challenging
00:42to animate dancing and then also do reflections in CG.
00:45That's really complex, but the animators were awesome and totally up for it.
00:51When people watch the short, I hope that they can feel more positively
00:55about themselves and how they look and feel okay about the tough parts of the journey.
00:59You know, maybe sometimes you go to the dark place to get to the good place,
01:02and that just makes the good place that much more beautiful.
01:04It's so much more beautiful.
01:34Two Demis, one Grand, Port de Bras, and five, six, seven, eight.
01:45Tight tummy, long neck.
02:04Four, five, three, five!

02:29Oh, my God.
02:59Oh, my God.
03:29Oh, my God.
