Andreea says: this conversation shows a wonderful relationship between two loving brothers, Neil and Mark. I chose it because of the incredibly honest and sweet nature of the two and their eagerness to protect each other. It shows that despite Mark being different to other people, his well-being is always the primary goal for his older brother. I wanted to show the strong connection in my animation, while also adding a little twist as they are frogs from a colourful and far away land.
