Reclamation: An Award-Winning Animated Call to Action.
The energy? Electric. Creative freedom? Paramount. The results? Award-winning.
Reclamation is a music video directed by Kelly Moneymaker—and brought to life through my animation.
A powerful song, Reclamation sheds light on the lasting effects of colonization on Alaska’s Indigenous communities. Kelly came to me with a vision—an idea and a song that needed to be seen.
During production, I took on multiple roles—art directing, concepting, illustrating, and animating. Using traditional frame-by-frame animation, we crafted something bold, dynamic, and unforgettable. The result? Reclamation—a visually striking music video that went on to win four awards across film festivals in the United States.
