We present to your attention a teaser for Tetiana Babanina’s short animated film "Warrior Inside of You", which is a participant in the "What I Love" anthology. The producer of the project is Oleh Malamuzh, director of "Mavka. The Forest Song", curator of the directing course at the online institute Projector.
Her older brother, the only one who loves her, dies from the fangs of the devil. The dog gets older but still she can’t forgive herself after this tragedy. In the middle of the woods she meets a wolf and together they continue to go forward. After so many years the devil finds her again but this time she can’t let him take another soul she loves…
“Warrior inside of you” is the story of someone who believes that, despite their weaknesses and fears, they still hold the responsibility for their loved ones. Only that can lead to self hate and most terrible thoughts possible. I want to show with this story, this character, for the ones who are facing dreadful experiences, war, death, unfairness, that no matter how difficult and impossible the events might seem, there’s always a fighter, a warrior inside of you, who will show herself when the time has come. And never forget, evil will not defeat evil. Only love, kindness and courage to forgive will save us all…

We present to your attention a teaser for Iuliia Kotsiuba short animated film "My Closet", which is a participant in the "What I Love" anthology. The producer of the project is Oleg Malamuzh, director of "Mavka. The Forest Song”, curator of the directing course at the online institute Projector.

Due to the terrible war, Iuliia is forced to divorce her husband, who went to serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. While doing ordinary things and maintaining contact with her lover, she tries to overcome fear and despair.

“My Closet” is my debut animated short film, created during the war. At a time when strength and internal reserves are enough only to survive another day, support loved ones and not go crazy. I remember how I wanted to reach normality - having breakfast, drawing, enjoying sunny mornings while hiding the pain. As if this could make all the troubles disappear…
But this film is not my story alone. It is the story of every woman who waits and hopes. I want “My Closet” to be a reminder that we are not alone, and that there is incredible strength in our vulnerability. Because only by acknowledging our feelings can we find the strength to carry on.

The director of the animated film "Mavka. The Forest Song" Oleh Malamuzh in cooperation with the students of the Animated Film Direction course of the online Institute Projector, present the third trailer of the Ukrainian animation anthology "What I love".

Despite the difficult circumstances due to the war, work on the project does not stop, and in the next year, 2025, you will see "What I love" in cinemas, on television and VOD platforms!

We will remind you that the production of the "What I love" anthology started at the beginning of the director course in 2021 and currently includes 23 short animated films united by one theme.

These are the theses of filmmaking students who seek to speak to the world through their creativity. The authors and directors of the project are:
Daniela Kareli, Tina Singa, Liudmyla Zymomria, Yulia Skibiniuk, Valerii Lifyrenko, Olena Turska, Mariia Lytovchenko, Andrii Tsizh, Alina Stetsenko, Daria Hnylytska, Dmytro Kolot, Kseniia Smirnova, Yaroslav Kutichenko, Tetiana Babanina, Polina Vetchynkina, Yuliia Oleksenko, Nadiia Doichev-Butt, Nadiia Kovalchuk, Svitlana Kovalska, Anastasiia Tereshchenko, Denys Tymofieiev, Yuliia Kotsiuba.

"What I love" is our voice not only to the international animation community, but an appeal to the whole world that there is "something" that is even stronger than war and thanks to which we live and continue to create. And this "something" is Love!

"What I love" is the reflection and awareness of Ukrainians about the things that fill life with meaning. This is definitely a deep and authentic project in terms of storytelling, because it is created by people who face loss and death every day.

Each of the stories is unique, like an imprint of the author's soul, and has a unique picture and voice. And this is precisely the strength of the project, its beauty and versatility.

Also, if you are reading this and realize that you also want to speak to the world about something important through your creative works, we invite you to study at the Projector online institute: recruitment for the 2024/2025 year for Oleh Malamuzh's course Animated Film Direction is currently underway.

Please note: everyone who is willing will not only master the directing speciality, but will also have a great opportunity to participate in the next season of the "What I love" anthology.

Режисер анімаційного фільму «Мавка. Лісова пісня» Олег Маламуж разом із студентами режисерського курсу онлайн інституту Projector представляють третій трейлер українського анімаційного альманаху “What I love”.

Попри складні обставини через війну робота над проектом не припиняється і вже в наступному, 2025 році, ви побачите “What I love” в кінотеатрах, на телебаченні та VOD платформах!

Нагадаємо, виробництво альманаху “What I love” стартувало на початку режисерського курсу у 2021 році і, наразі, нараховує 23 короткометражних анімаційних фільмів, об’єднаних однією темою.

Це дипломні роботи студентів-режисерів, які прагнуть говорити до світу через свою творчість. Авторами і режисерами проекту є:
Даніела Карелі, Кристина Сингаєвська, Людмила Зимомря, Юлія Скібінюк, Валерій Ліфиренко, Олена Турська, Марія Литовченко, Андрій Ціж, Аліна Стеценко, Дар’я Гнилицька, Дмитро Колот, Ксенія Смірнова, Ярослав Кутіченко, Тетяна Бабаніна, Поліна Ветчинкіна, Юлія Олексенко, Надія Дойчева-Бут, Надія ковальчук, Світлана Ковальська, Анастасія Терещенко, Денис Тимофєєв, Юлія Коцюба.

“What I love” – наш голос не лише до міжнародної анімаційної спільноти, а звернення до всього світу про те, що є «щось», що сильніше навіть за війну і завдяки чому ми живемо і продовжуємо творити. І це «щось» - це Любов!

“What I love” – це роздуми та усвідомлення українців про речі, які наповнюють життя сенсом. Це безумовно глибокий і справжній за сторітелінгом проект, бо створюється людьми, які щодня зустрічаються із втратами та смертю.

Кожна із історій є унікальною, наче відбиток душі автора, має неповторний малюнок і голос. І, саме в цьому сила проекту, краса та універсальність.

То ж, якщо ви це читаєте і усвідомлюєте, що також хочете говорити до світу про важливе через свої творчі роботи, запрошуємо на навчання в онлайн інститут Projector: наразі триває набір на 2024/2025 рік на Режисерський курс Олега Маламужа.

Звертаємо увагу: усі бажаючі можуть не тільки опанувати режисерську спеціальність, а й отримають прекрасну можливість долучитися до наступного сезону альманаху “What I love”.

During a fight, a young man in a state of affect removes his alcoholic father from reality with the help of a mysterious Remove app. However, it was not so black and white, as the memory of the time long past reminds him of their shared grief. Perhaps there is a way to fix what has been lying broken for so long?

There are seven graphic styles in the animated film «I removed Him» and this style in particular is one of them. It is meant to underline the ambiance the characters live in.

In this video you can also find a lot of locations and concepts that were developed during the preproduction process. To find out which one of them made their way to the final project watch the animation after its release.

It is so cold and lonely on such a rainy autumn day. How can one leave a little puppy alone out on the street?
But don’t be afraid the pup won’t stay abandoned - little Emmie won’t let him freeze!

How it all turns out you’ll see in the cartoon «DUKE» by Krystyna Synhaievska (Tina Singa)
