A Passion Project.
Seeking a creative outlet during a pivotal moment in my life, I found inspiration. I found myself watching other creatives bring their stories to life using my childhood favorite game, The Sims 4, and I wondered how they created such captivating visuals.
One day, I saw a creator on Twitch (tinycoffeecups) streaming a behind-the-scenes look at creating a Machinima, the art of using video from computer graphics to craft an animated story, and I was hooked. I quickly downloaded the software and began bringing more intention to my gameplay. And that’s how “Layers of Perspective” was born.
“Layers of Perspective”
Meet Emmalyn Helton, a high-achieving psychology professor whose life takes an unexpected turn when she loses her tenure amid committee disputes. Heartbroken and uncertain, she faces the daunting task of defending her position. Yet, as she reflects on her true essence, Emmalyn embraces change, transforming this setback into a pivotal moment rather than a defeat.
Choosing to prioritize her own happiness, she confronts the obstacles that have held her back—family dynamics, ingrained habits, limiting thought patterns, and her self-image. This is a story of love: a love for herself, an openness to receive love from others, and a profound appreciation for life itself. Join her on a journey through ups and downs, upheavals, and moments of joy as she navigates the complexities of self-discovery and fulfillment.
