Many people have been asking to see the amazing short film that Cheyanna made with Kurtis Peskleway as well as other CAT students. The project was developed through the Reel Youth’s ‘Youth Community Stories’ program and TELUS STORYHIVE. For those that might not know, the animated short film, Like and Follow is about the beautiful journey of two LGBTQ2+ teens who learn the true meaning of connection when technology suddenly takes flight in an unexpected way.... Cheyanna had this to say about the project: The most important aspect of our film is representation: LGBTQ2+, Aboriginal women, youth, and technology addiction. We want everyone to see a reflection of themselves in our film. There is a critical need for Aboriginal people and characters in media; I hired 8 Aboriginal artists across Canada in this project and I am honoured that our lead character will be representing their people in a respectful, beautiful way. As I am part of the LGBTQ2+ community, being bisexual, I have several wonderful friends who are androgynous: I designed the personality and look of our androgynous character in honour of them. Our Indigenous character has been named Awinita, meaning little deer or social one and our androgynous character has been named Kai. We are facing an unprecedented dependency on technology and risk for developing tech addiction. We want to raise awareness and spark hope during a time when it is needed most. The Centre for Arts and Technology is so happy to have such talented students putting out amazing and interesting work and we congradulate Kurtis and Cheyanna on a successful and impressive release. We can’t wait to see what the future has in store for these gifted artists. ‘Like and Follow’ is available on the ReelYouth Youtube channel and ca be viewed here: https://hubs.ly/H0zpY_c0 Check it out and find Cheyanna and Kurtis, you can find them on Instagram @ColourEclipseArt
