story

​

A musician likes the animation I made last semester and said we can work together and submit the music video to film festivals.

​

He said the song is called HERO. Basically, the idea of the song is the protagonist is a nobody in the beginning and somehow realize his/her own value toward the end. He left the rest to me. So I link it with my monsters of New York idea.
