"Can we make tough, heavy geology feel like a fun animated story?"
I wanted to turn the vast scale of geological time and ancient fossils into an experience the audience could truly feel in a warm, emotional way. In this film, a group of ants goes on a field trip to an underground fossil exhibition.

Their journey is guided by Camille Saint-Saëns’ Danse Macabre. Inspired by the poem’s theme of cheerfully accepting mortality rather than fearing it, the animation transforms geological history into a whimsical story: ancient fossils frozen in the layers of the earth awaken one by one, joining a playful dance to the music.
