ANIMATION+ : Short Film Block

A naïve young girl, Norabelle, learns to let go of her need to control the day and finds joy in an unexpected place.

Zsofia Katona is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Animation at California State University, Long Beach, where she produced her short film NORABELLE (2020). Katona is a swiss army knife of talent, having written, produced, animated, edited, and designed and built the set and puppets for the film, which was inspired by her “desperate thirst for sunlight” during her own isolation in the COVID-19 pandemic. Katona finds joy in seeing her characters come to life.
