This Is What I Created When I Quit Smoking

That's what happened after the 11th of March 2016 (the day I had had my last cigarette), and how I tried to escape the struggle of quitting using animation. I've created a loop animation every week for 9 weeks, trying to describe the process I was and I'm still going through. Insomnia, Headache, Breath, Calling, Stress, Smell, Gift, Craving, and Moodswing. I was looking for a distraction and experimenting with hand-drawn frame-by-frame animation helped me a lot, doing over and over again a repetitive task made me entering an isolation mood and silenced all the voices in my mind... Quit Smoking has been selected to be part of the 4th International Motion Festival, Cyprus 2017. More info: nicoladestefanis.com | looping GIFs on dribbble
