"Dragon Con 2016: The Best of the Independent Film Festival" by Kyle Pinion
HERE but here's the part about Heard:
"This short, which doubles as both a pseudo Euro-style sci-fi odyssey and a metaphor for artistic growth, was the first of the animated shorts to really grab me. I was taken with its confidence in vision, its clear purpose, and how – as the protagonist continues his journey – the visual stylings continue to evolve from simple line art to full fledged colored action."
It's a fantastic write-up and pretty well encapsulates my awesome experience at the DragonCon Film Festival.
