Eddy / Stéphane Berla | King of Sea

King of Sea is a short film directed by Stéphane Berla with music by Kwoon. On the coast of the Finistère department, a sailor bids farewell to his family. Soon he must go back to sea and this time he will not return… Years later, the boy who has become a sailor himself must also sail away. In the depths of the sea, a ghost from the past catches up with him…

King of Sea is a very special project for Eddy because, beyond its many artistic and aesthetic merits, this film is our first project made in VR! The expressiveness of the characters and the realism of the sets come only from Quill and Blender. The director did not use stop motion.
