An animated short by Jamie Lin, Ginny Hung and myself, based on the poem “Recipe for a Hippopotamus Sandwich” by Shel Silverstein. After discovering a mutual love for Shel Silverstein’s work, our group wanted to take it back to childhood and create a light-hearted, whimsical animation. Created using After Effects and Flash with original illustrations done in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
