“Unofficial” is a passion project by Petrick Animation Studio that celebrates music and animation. The project founders invite directors to create a short music video for a musician whose music they love, allowing each director to showcase their unique style and vision. Each episode is a reflection of the director's creative vision, from the story and script to the design of the animated character.

Mysticism and dark magic aura is inherent to Caroline Polachek. I was inspired by the victorian vibes of “The Haunting of Hill House” and a scene from “Viy”. When it all was put together, the script practically wrote itself.
I had to remind myself to stay focused on the main character and avoid getting distracted by the little devils throughout the process.
I prefer to work with black-and-white graphics, lines, contours, simple characters and minimal shades.
