Hey guys! So, finally am getting the chance to upload my first short-film, Vanity. It has been a year now and I am still proud of this. The reason for this delay is due to the festival and award submissions it has been involved with. Vanity is an experimental short-film about an African spirit named Alzena that uses her powers to recreate the world. Explore and become a part of this journey, full of imagination and wonder. Narration by Saili Katebe Animation and Direction by Nygilia McClain Film Recognition: First-Time Filmmaker Sessions Selection The Lift-Off Sessions Selection S.O.U.L Fest 2020 Selection Dividing Lines: An African American and Native American Symposium Selection African Film Awards: African Voice International Film Festival Nomination for Best Animation British Animation Awards: Shortlisted for Best Immersive Film Cameroon International Film Festival Selection

An experimental film of a futuristic Africa, combining virtual reality, graphic design, and illustration. Test trial for Short Film "Vanity".

A stop-motion animation test I created, using photography and illustration. The purpose of this was for the R&D phase of my MA Animation course at Northumbria University.

First video vibes! Welcome to my channel. I am happy to share with you one of the first collaboration speed drawings. I will be featuring new artists every week this summer as background music. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below. Today’s drawing is inspired by The Kind, an alternative-pop band from London, UK. If this is something you would enjoy or want to get involved with, hit me up!

The world is magical and beyond comprehension. Taylor Swift’s new album, ‘Folklore”, takes us on a journey of discovery and self-evaluation. I believe Jacqueline Langham’s music for this video blends nicely with the speed drawing of the folklore singer. There is a dope balance between the two. Hope you guys enjoy!

My love for afro-curly styles is something I wanted to express in this video. Culturally, I feel it is the most powerful form of self-love for black people. Georgia Lee Johnson's music reminds me of that calming energy when we accept our own beauty and gives life to the drawings too.
