Norma, written & directed by Emily Munster (Room Seven Films) can currently be seen on the Directors Notes YouTube channel. Embed below.

Norma is a black comedy about an elderly couple celebrating a birthday.

After watching the short, you can read an interview with Emily on the Directors Notes website, here, which gives good insight into the production.

Emily is currently working on her next film End of January, which concerns children and is not a comedy.

I am proud to have contributed VFX to Norma. I attached cyber cake to Norma’s face in wide and mid shots. Tracking was very difficult (no tracking markers, non planar surface, long duration, “low” apparent contrast). My hybrid solution involved Lockdown for AE, some point tracking, and a bit of mesh warping.
